Hello Harrods
Bron, her 7 month-old son Owen, and I went into London today to see all the ‘must see’ attractions before my departure tomorrow.
Bron was an excellent tour guide as she pointed out all the ‘royal’ features of the city, including St. James’ and Buckingham Palaces. We continued onto Knightsbridge and visited the famous department store – Harrods.
We jumped on a London Bus (pram and all) to Piccadilly Circus and walked through Carnaby Street in Soho and back to Waterloo Station. It was another fab day and little Owen was a star! ♥
