London events with the little ones
The moment I got up the subsequent day, the kids were still asleep in their own place in the London flat we have hired, while Maria was up preparing their breakfast and making coffee for the both of us. We enjoyed a calm half an hour and talked over which places we are to see throughout the day. After that the kids woke up and dressed up, enjoyed their bite and were finally prepared to go.
That day Maria made a decision that we ought to bring the little ones to see some ceremonies, which might be seen only in London and that, as we were confident, would make an impression on our little ones for a very long time. We left our London holiday flat and used the metro to reach the Buckingham Palace, where we saw the changing of the guards’ service. Mike and Emily were absolutely stunned by the foot guards with their red and black uniforms and the specific high black helmets. The service was not short, but the kids were curious and saw it until the end and after that did not want to leave the Memorial of Queen Victoria, wherefrom we saw the entire program.
I went to buy snacks and fish’n’chips for all of us, while Maria took Emily and Mike and went to the nearby Green Park where we had a modest family picnic and the kids liked laying on the lawn and running with other children that contacted them.
As the day was very hot, I advised we should move to the Hide Park and the Kensington Gardens, where is the Princess Diana Memorial and the playground next to it. This kids area is good for children up to 12 years old. Mike and Emily especially enjoyed the solid wood pirate ship and were discussing it during the whole evening as we went back to our London holiday flat.
