A beautiful sunny day. Ella picked us up and we took an “overland” train to this market area. I the 1800’s this was a very busy commercial area because of a canal. There were places to store goods and stable up to 800 horses. So there is a lot of room for tiny shops and food stalls. Once we got there, we separated so the girls could look at what interested them. My plan was to look around and then walk back to the hotel. (Took a selfie with the lock. They yarn bomb here too.)
Found a nice loo and met a lovely couple from Brisbane, Australia. We got to chatting and ended up sitting and having a coffee. The girls were finished and heading back to Ella's by the time I started walking. We were keeping in touch by texting. B and arrived at almost the same time.
Ella went to class and we rested until dinner. We found a really nice Indian place a 10 minute walk away. (See pics of girls and food.) Ella took leftovers home.
We walked Ella back to the metro, gave back the Oyster cards and wished her a fond farewell. (B was taken with Mews and the cherry blossoms in the park on the way.
Now we are packing ready to move on through the Chunnel to Paris.
