London 2023/24 - Part 3

New Year's Eve

Sunday - December 31st 2023

Like yesterday our first stop was at Lockdown Cafe, where we got a cup of coffee to go and then we took the train to Waterloo Station. There we got sandwiches at MS for breakfast before starting our walking tour towards Buckingham Palace. Changing of the guards was about to start soon and so the whole area was packed with tourists. So we stopped at Starbucks instaed and enjoyed a cup of coffee while it started to rain outside. When the rain stopped we strolled down Piccadilly Street to Fortnum & Mason, but unfortunately they didn't open before noon. We continued our tour to The White Horse pub, where we got a couple of beers while waiting for our lunch reservation.

For lunch we had a reservation at Mildreds, a plant based restaurant. Claudia and I both ordered a burger with fries, which was delicious. In the afternoon we just strolled around Piccadilly Street, checked out Whole Foods Market for snacks and bought some sweets and jam at Fortnum & Mason before walking back to Waterloo Station. Unfortunately it started to rain again and so we decided to take the train back to Wandsworth. At MS we bought sandwiches for later and back in the hotel we rested a little bit before we spent the evening at The Alma pub. Once the pub got too crowded we left and headed to McDonald's for McFlurrys. Back in our room we had a room picnic with our sandwiches and enjoyed a relaxing New Year's Eve drinking beer and watching TV.
