Three of our family are arriving today, landing about noon or
so. We decide to take a bit of a walk this AM, then, if they want, we will meet
Kevin, Sarah and Hunter at Paddington Station to help them take the tube to
Notting Hill. We head out for Buckingham Palace by taking the tube from Notting
Hill Gate to Hyde Park Gate. We then walk south to the Palace to do the Green
Park & St. James Park City Walk (#2).

The Palace is much less crowded today than when we were here a few days ago. Probably due to no guard change on Sunday. We enjoy the Queen Victoria Memorial Fountain.
We then head into St. James Park. We find the St.
James Café; a perfect spot for a cup of tea and a pastry.
Refreshed, we finish the City Walk. Passing the Prince
Albert Memorial in Kensington Gardens.
We finish up at and return to our flat to wait for news from
Heathrow. The kids arrive and we join them at Paddington. We all journey to their
flat and they get settled in.
Later, we join them at the Eagle, a Pub a couple of
blocks away. We have a nice pub dinner and make plans for meeting in
the morning.
