I am writing this on the train to the airport. I fly back to Lisbon tonight. My feet have been looking forward to this train ride. They burnt up 20km throughout London today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start by answering the question that is on everyone\u2019s mind\u2026. How was sleeping and a \u201cCapsule\u201d? Honestly it was a glorious 11 hour sleep! Maybe it was because Dublin only gave me a couple hours of sleep the night before. The fan in there kept it surprisingly fresh. If you know me well, you\u2019ll know that\u2019s no easy task!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I woke up about 6:30, took my time and reel rotted for a bit. Got dressed and went out for a coffee and a bite before I really started my adventure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After that I did a small stroll to Trafalgar Square and took in the sights without a butt load of tourists. Nothing worst than tourists!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

While I was in Trafalgar Square I noticed that the national gallery is free! Free? They had me at free!! It was at that point I decided that will be my next adventure, but first a shower and check out of my room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that little adventure I felt it would be good to go have a 1.5 hour walk to Abbey Road. I had to! I know it\u2019s so clich\u00e9 but so be it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that was done I decided I needed to get closer to Big Ben. That was another long walk but I sure got closer. You have no idea how big that complex is, gigantic!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To say it\u2019s been a day is an understatement. It has indeed been a day, a great day! I packed my day full and I wouldn\u2019t have had it any other way. Hope everyone is enjoying my little adventure log!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
