Mind the Gap. ♥ 3:31 PM
Picking up where I left off this afternoon...We spent a very long time at the flat resting because everyone was very tired from a week of walking and staying out late last night. We finally made it back out at around 7 and got on the tube to head for Kings Cross station. We were all very excited to take pictures at platform 9 3/4 and it was everything we hoped for. It's just a little sign on the wall and Kings Cross doesn't really look like it does in the movies but it was still really fun and something I really wanted to do considering how much I love Harry Potter.
After taking some pictures we got
back on the Tube and headed up to a town called Primrose Hill in Camden Town where there is a hill that gives you as good of a view of London as the London Eye. When we were getting back on the tube we got the rare chance to see a man get his backpack stuck in the door of the tube so it was unable to leave and they had to call someone down to bring it out. Once we got there it was quite a walk up the hill, and we got a little confused on which direction we should be watching. It was absolutely beautiful up there. I think we were ruining a couples romantic outing, but there were a few other groups of tourists up there too so it wasn't
just our fault.The tube was very packed on our way back and we barely made it on before the doors closed, but we did make it! We also stopped at a bakery by our flat on the way back for some pastries. Sadly since it was about closing time they weren't fresh and I don't think it would have been the best even if it were.
Tomorrow morning we're planning on going to Portobello Market in Notting Hill (like the movie).
The End.
