OK, we have to fess up: we chose not to walk the final leg of the coast path on Wednesday. Our destination was Plymouth and we all wanted more time to see the historic sites such as the steps the Mayflower departed from, Sir Francis Drake's memorial.......and tour the Plymouth Gin distillery. So, instead of walking the last 13+ miles; arriving at 6pm and dead tired from a long day, we all piled into a taxi and had a full day to play tourist. Oh, and the gin was pretty good too!
After bidding adieu to my brother and sister-in-law earlier this morning, we boarded the train to London and have just checked into the Hotel Indigo near Paddington station. We're about to head for dinner and plan what we will do for the next two days. Safe to say a little shopping will be on the agenda, while Saturday night will spent be in a pub cheering on Manchester United in their Champions League Final clash with Barcelona. C'mon United!
