Exploring London - Day 3

Before we moved, C was most excited about the transportation in London - getting to ride in a taxi, on a bus and on a train. We rode a taxi from the airport so we had already crossed that off the list. Today, we crossed off the other two.

I had read about a 'city farm' not too far from our apartment, but still a bus ride away. Here is K and C on their first bus trips (bummed I didn't get a picture of the bus itself, but yes, it was a classic red double decker one).

Unfortunately when we arrived the farm was closed today but you could still see a lot of the animals from the fences. There were horses, goats, rabbits and lots of chickens.

So since the farm was a bit of a bust, we decided to take the train up to Notting Hill to visit the Princess Diana Memorial Playground. C was very excited to ride the tube.

Before we even reached the playground C spotted a carousel. It was a beautiful one and went very fast. C & J were able to ride together. K had fallen asleep by this point.

After the carousel, C insisted on riding the cars - hers was a NYC firetruck.

Finally we made it to the playground itself. It was a really neat playground with mostly wood play structures and different sections hidden away.

C's favorite part was the large ship where she could 'walk the plank'.
