The Last Hurrah, Hastings to London


He said: Our 2nd full day in Hastings was a wash out; cold windy, and rainy. So, after a short walk to get groceries, we decided to stay in our room, this was our first and only day to relax, as it turns out. The next day (today) we took a train to London for the last day of our trip. After checking in, we grabbed a tourist map, and walked to the Victoria and Albert Museum, about a mile or more away. Belgravia, Chelsea, and Kensington were some of the areas we walked through on the way. It's a free museum with lots of interesting and historical things to see. Later on, we saw the Prince Albert memorial, then walked back to the hotel through Hyde Park. A short, but good day in London, and a memorable trip overall. My feet are not even sore anymore.

  1. A one mile walk to a museum. After 137. Not worth mentioning. Sounds like it was a great trip. Time just for the two of you. What could be better?

  2. When you hit London your staff photographer went nuts. Guess he got excited about having more than stunning greenery and sign posts to take pix of!
    Wonderful blog, all said. Welcome back!
