London 2022/23 - Part 4

Windsor Castle

Sunday - January 1st 2023

On our last full day in London we wanted to do something special and decided to visit Windsor Castle. So after breakfast we too the train from Wandsworth Town to Windsor and Eton Riverside. The train journey took about an hour once we arrived in the picturesque town of Windsor, we headed straight to the castle before it got too crowded. We purchased our tickets online, which meant we were able to skip the queue and soon we were inside the beautiful castle courtyard. First we did the walking tour through the impressive castle and its beautiful chambers. Halfway through the tour we stopped at the castle cafe for cakes and coffee.

Once we had finished our tour we left the castle to see the Long Walk, but instaed of taking a long walk, we got a New Year's day drink at The Carpenter's Arms pub. For lunch we went to Wagamama, which was okay, but nothing special. Then we strolled around the shopping malls and checked out the small towns of Windsor and Eton. Before taking the train back to London we got a coffee at Costa. Back in Wandsworth we rested a little bit at the hotel and then we spent the evening at The Alma. Unfortunately the kitchen was already closed and so after a couple of drinks we had dinner at McDonalds.

Returning Home

Monday - January 2nd 2023

After breakfast we took the train to Waterloo Station and from there the metro to Paddington Station. There we caught the Heathrow Express to the airport. Once we passed through security we got a sandwich for lunch and had a last drink before flying home. Unfortunately the plane departed an hour later, but we made it back to Munich. Before driving home we got something to eat at the airport.
