🚇 Lily’s Blog — London in One Day

Last Saturday my aunt and I spent a whole day in London, and we only used public transport. Here’s our day.
8.05 — We caught the train from Sunbeam Bay. It was rush hour, so we stood for the first half hour. We arrived at Paddington Station at 10.20.
10.40 — We took the Underground. London has eleven lines, and every line has its own colour. We took the brown line, changed at Oxford Circus and took the red Central line to St Paul’s. The trains were so crowded that my face was in a man’s backpack.
12.00 — After visiting St Paul’s Cathedral, we walked across the Millennium Bridge. It’s only for pedestrians, and it wobbles a little. Then we had lunch at a market.
14.30 — We got on a red double-decker bus, the number 11, and sat upstairs at the front. It’s the cheapest sightseeing tour in London! We saw Big Ben, Trafalgar Square and the river.
16.00 — We took a river bus back along the Thames. The views were amazing, but it was windy, and my aunt’s hat flew into the river.
18.30 — Train home. I was exhausted, my feet hurt, and I loved every minute. My tip: buy a travel card, and never stand in front of the doors on the Underground!
