Day 3

It was a nice relief today to be able to visit with normal weather. 

Phi and Horia did a marathon, walking from Westminster Abbey to Buckingham Palace. They paid a visit to the National Gallery before going to explore Hyde Park and Kensington Garden and then heading to Notting Hill.  They being back at home just in time for the reservation we had in a pub.  

In the meantime Renée and me went to walk the paths of Regent Park.  Just before entering the park, I saw the Beatles store Richard Porter has just acquired.  I went in but he wasn't there.  I took the opportunity to buy his new book call :The Beatles Fab Four Cities.  It was a signed copy, so it make me very happy.  

We stay in the park so long that it was almost time for lunch when we got out.  Just before to find a place to eat, we went in front Paul (You know Paul who?) house and Abbey Road studio.  It is like a pelerinage for me.  

We found our way in front a restaurant call Paulette.  It was a charming place.  By the time we finish our lunch, it was the mid-afternoon.  Our intention was to go to Camden, but we were starting to feel tired, so we opted to take it cool and went for a refreshing drink in a beautiful place near the canals, then we returned quietly at our flat.  It was 17h30 when we arrived.  

Tonight, we cross the Albert Bridge to had supper in the Prince Albert Pub.  It was a Fish and chips night for Renée, Horia and me.  Phi choose a traditional sausages and mash plate.  What a pleasure to share those precious moments together ! 22120 steps, not so bad for the old ladies.
