London’s calling!

And so the time has come to once again bit goodbye to Cornwall!
Both my parents fell in love with Cornwall and they wished they had more time
here. Oh well, every good thing will always have its end. Before returning the hired car, we went for a tour in Falmouth Town. My family really enjoyed the picturesque scenery, especially from the pier. We also managed to do some quick souvenir shopping
before heading off to Pendennis Point for lunch. Under the hot summer sun
accompanied by the cool sea breeze with a view that overlooked the whole of
Falmouth, lunch for us was PERFECT (except for the part where the seagulls are
always eyeing on your food)!

We took the 1458H First Great Western service to London, departing
from Penryn Station with stops at Truro and Par. The travelling time took us
more than 7 hours instead of the normal 5 hours due to the train obstruction
somewhere! We only arrived at London Paddington Station around 2315H.
I have booked the Bayswater Service Apartment for our stay in London – an apartment situated in Bayswater which is just 5 minutes drive from the station. We got the metered taxi instead of taking the underground tube train (EXPENSIVE!!!) and it was only £8.00/car to our apartment! Tips: Usually taxis in London only permit four passengers, but sometimes you just got to haggle! It is always cheap to travel by taxi (in large group especially) if the distance travelled is mainly in the city centre.
