After a very pleasant stop in the arrivals lounge in T3, we are on the tube to our hotel. It was much easier to use the older Piccadilly line because we're staying in Covent Garden. So we will have to wait until another time to see the new Elizabeth line. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JP, glad you both made it without any issues. Hope you have a very fun weekend😀 Sorry, Lois, to hear about the COLD hitting northern Florida. Today for us in Central Ohio, the good news is that our high will be all of 10F. But winds are still very high, making the wind chill not too comfortable. But, we are doing much better than Buffalo and some other northern areas. Glad that JP and Chris made it safely to London. Look forward to seeing pix's and reading details from your adventures there. Have a funny below that is not too much about Christmas, but might bring memories from the "good old days"?? No, that is not my picture from younger days. THANKS! Enjoy!

Rare drron29 Posted December 25, 2022 #15417 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Well the weather for our Christmas Day is a mild 30C - 86F. But here in Bangkok it’s a lovely day with very little humidity. I hope those having extreme weather will get a respite soon. A Merry Christmas to you all. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare jpalbny Posted December 25, 2022 #15424 Share Posted December 25, 2022 Christmas Eve Day in London. We landed a little past 7AM and hit the Virgin arrivals lounge for some strong coffee and a light breakfast. The kind waiter insisted that we have a glass of champagne. Or three... Found the Piccadilly line and rode to Covent Garden. A few minutes to the hotel where we dropped off our bags and headed out to explore! Nice building across from our hotel. And the Christmas tree in Covent Garden. Across the Waterloo bridge. To the Southbank Markets. Festive decorations. And blue skies! We strolled to Westminster. And stopped for the classic shot. From here we meandered to Trafalgar Square for the Christmas tree there. Back through the markets at Leicester Square and then returned to Covent Garden. Even the pup was dressed for the season. We took the tube to Hyde Park for the Winter Wonderland. And stopped in the Bavarian Village for a snack. Back to Covent Garden for our hotel. Saw a friend on the way. Our room was ready so time for a shower and a little rest before dinner. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
