London transport and jobs

Monday 29/9/15
Our Pub in London (the Angerstein ) is quite old but very comfortable. We got to know the manager/barman quite well which was done over a few beers and ciders at the bar. We had to return the keys of the Jeep after  the fiasco we had returning the jeep yesterday. Who would have thought a company like Europcar would not have a inner London branch open on a Sunday at 3pm! We decided to take a river cruise into London as we thought this may be quicker than a bus or taxi and more relaxing. The keys needed to be back between 9 and 10 am. It was a lovely way to travel. Once the keys had been returned we had a late breakfast and then set off on the London tube and train system to go to the flood surge barriers on the Thames. We made it. It was quite interesting and not only did we see the impressive flood gates but also the beautiful gardens and hedges close by. From here we returned back to Geenwich and did a quick walk through the magnificent Royal Naval college. There were many lovely buildings that we were able to check out at no cost. It is now used as part of the Greenwich university. We walked back to our pub and spent the afternoon washing and repacking ready for our European trip.
