Day 17 - Second last day

Today has been just killing time.
We are due to head out to our new digs out next to Heathrow, as we chose to stay there for our last night rather than worry about the hassle of doing it early in the morning from central London.
Plus, Sam told us that the Underground line we would be using is so crowded at that time of the day that it would drive us nuts trying to negotiate it with our backpacks.
So today we just wandered around the shops and up to Westminster Bridge for some final photos.
The weather changed today for the better, and even though it was only about 18-19 degrees, so many locals were in their shirts and t-shirts, and even singlets in some cases! We thought that was a bit extreme, but the weather was beautiful.
One of today's pano's.
And another! Getting good at them aren't I !!
Where old meets new down a side street.
And the beautiful view walking down a random back street.
Big Ben is always impressive no matter from where you take the photo.

We are now tucked up in our digs, she is packed and ready to go and I have my crap out and everywhere. I console myself by knowing that when the plane reverses out tomorrow, my backpack will be packed and safely in the back somewhere.

We are both keen to get back home and see our other two boys, but leave here with very mixed emotions as we leave another one here.
We don't when or if we'll ever be back here (might need to go back and save some more money first!!) but we have already identified where and what we'd like to see should the opportunity arise again.
