London 2018/19 - Part 3

New Year's Eve

Monday - December 31st 2018

Since we started visiting London over New Year's Eve a couple of years ago, we always did the same on New Year's Eve and this year was no exception. After breakfast at the hotel we headed into the city and walked from Waterloo Station to Trafalgar Square. From there we walked along The Mall to Buckingham Palace and then to Piccadilly Street where we stopped for a coffee at Starbucks and for a donut at Crosstown Donuts. At Whole Foods Market we bought snacks and sandwiches for our New Year's Eve hotel picnic and then we hit the White Horse Pub for a couple of drinks.

In the early afternoon we had lunch at Tibits, a vegetarian buffet style restaurant, which is probably my favourite restaurant in London. Since the city got ready for the celebration in the evening, many streets were already closed, which was a little bit annoying. After we managed to find a way back to Waterloo Station, we returned to Wandsworth Town. There we dropped off our snacks at the hotel and after we relaxed a bit, we spent the evening at The Alma Pub. A couple of gin tonics later we walked back to our hotel, where we enjoyed our picnic and watched the fireworks on TV.
