It is already not a spring, it is the summer! We docked in the morning in Tilbury port on the Thames River, 45 kms from London city. I started the day with 1,5 kms walk to the Tilbury town rly station. The Round trip ticket to London costs 12,10 pounds and the travel lasts 40 min. The end of the track is at Finchurch St station – some 400 m from the Tower of London. So I started my walk from the Tower, then there was St Paul Cathedral and Millenium Bridge… Long walk in the sun along the River to Westminster, then Parks and Buckingham Palace, where I enjoyed the parade (is it Commonwealth Day today?) Lunch in the park, then Picadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and Strand, Fleet Street back to St Paul and Tower… So it is possible dear backpackers to visit London without spending a penny. Well – if you want to see the museums and other attractions you will leave here the fortune. I visited them many years ago… Lucky me! 🙂 But it was nice to see again well-known places in the sun!
