Today we went on our final planned trip; to Monet's Garden by Bike! We had time to have breakfast before heading off to the St Lazare train station to meet our guide. (we had to catch 2 metro's and still managed to get their half an hour before time. The metro is easy to use, you just follow the line numbers to where you want to go. We met Kit our guide and caught the train to Vernon. There were 24 people in our group. It took 45 mins to get to Vernon. When we arrived we went into the village and brought supplies for a picnic. We brought baguettes, pear cider, filled rolls, and some yummy pastries, then we got our bikes (each bike had a name, mine was "blue man group" and mums was ... read more

Today we did some sightseeing. We were a bit tired from the past couple of days so had a bit of a sleep in then enjoyed our Hotel breakfast, which We had left too early for previously. Then we set off to the Hard Rock Cafe to pick up our Paris Pass. It took quite a while, and there were lots of people and busy streets. Eventually we got our passes and caught the hop on hop off bus. We wanted to go to the Eiffel Tower and since it was already mid day we decided to do that first. When we got there and hopped off our bus we found out it was closed! So we took some photos and walked around a bit. Then we went on a river cruise up the Seine. It ... read more

DISNEYLAND! Today we went to Disney Paris. We had to get up early and travel to the meeting point on the metro. It took about an hour on the bus, and we arrived about 9 am. We had to at at the gates for them to open at 9.30. There were lots of people. First we went to Fantasyland because mum wanted to ride pin the teacups. Some of the rides wee closed and all of them had long waiting lines. My favourite ride was the Pirates of the Caribbean, we had to sit in a boat and travelled thru a pirate attack! It was a little bit scary. The ride that I didn't like, and won't be going on again, was the Space Mountain, Mission 2. We blasted of into darkness in a rocket, really ... read more

It was raining this morning when we got up. We were meeting Alice today and going to Stoke-on -Trent. We left the apartment at about 8 and caught the underground to the Euston Station to met Alice. The rain stopped but the temp has dropped and it is a lot cooler today. We successfully got to Euston and met up with Alice then started our train journey to Stoke-on-Trent and the Burleigh pottery factory. This is England's oldest working Victorian pottery factory. The factory was closed today, but the factory shop was open. The man told us about how they are fixing up the old factory and buildings and by next year will have factory tours and a cafe too. There were not many people here. Next we taxied to the Wedgwood shop and had a ... read more

The first photo is for Miss Cameron and Room 10, we found Basil's brother in the apartment hallway, Henry! We caught the underground to the London Eye. Wit didn't open until 10am so we arrived just after it opened. We missed the big line and had to wait about 15 minutes to get on. It was a cloudy but warm day. We hopped on and went up. You could see all over London. When we got off we went to the London Dungeon, which is just close to the Eye. I didn't really like it, it was scary. They told us the history of London, showing us the dungeons and how prisoners were tortured, about Guy Fawkes, and Jack the Ripper. Dad went on the end ride but I didn't want to so me and mum ... read more
