New Year's Eve
Tuesday - December 31st 2024
And it's New Year's Eve again. Today we stopped at Lockdown Bakery for
breakfast before taking the train to Waterloo Station. Like in the last years
we did the exact same walking tour from Waterloo Station to Trafalgar Square
and via The Mall to Buckingham Palace. From there we headed to Piccadilly
Street to get a coffee at Starbucks. Along the way to Piccadilly Circus we
came across Burlington Arcade with its James Bond pop up bar
The 007. I'm a huge Bond fan and of course we had to get a glass of Bolliger
Champagne. Timing was perfect, because today was the last day of the bar.

Afterwards we went to Fortnum & Mason to buy some jam, but we didn't get
the ones we were searching for. So we continued our tour and in Soho we
stopped for drinks at
The White Horse
pub. It has become a sort of tradition to go there on New Year's Eve while
taking a walk around London. Like last year we had a reservation at
Mildreds, a plant based restaurant, for a late lunch. We shared arancini as a starter
and for our main course we both got a veggier burger with fries. The food was
really good and after we paid we walked back to Waterloo Station, because the
citty got so crowded due the New Year's Eve celebrations. At Waterloo Station
we bought some snacks and sandwiches for later and then we took the train back
to Wandsworth. There we had a couple of drinks at the Alma Pub until we
returned to our room and enjoyed a quiet New Year's Eve watching TV and eating
our snacks and sandwiches.
