HAPPY CHRISTMAS! Day Eight: London for Christmas

Had a late morning this morning which is unusual for my family. Mom usually manages to wake up between 7-8am with or without an alarm so we usually have early starts. We were woken up this morning by the cleaning ladies knocking on the hotel room door at 9:30am! Woke up to some presents at the foot of mine and Ally's bed! Santa can even find you in a hotel room in London!



We each got some of our beloved stroop waffles, inside the bags we each got a scarf (which are the scarves in the picture below), an I <3 London pin and a London pencil and underneath the bags is a box of mini mince pies for all of us to share. Santa also brought mom a scarf too. :) We spent the morning munching on all the goodies we have, drinking champagne with strawberries and mimosas and watching Christmas movies.




We didn't end up getting up and leaving the hotel until around 3pm but it didn't matter much because most everything is closed today along with the tubes and buses. We walked around our area a bit which I took some pictures of to show you our cute little area.



When we went out walking we did find a Tex Mex restaurant that was open so we went in and had some nachos. They also gave us some little shot glasses that had strawberry margarita in them! We asked them to take our picture with them so they decided we needed some sombreros for the picture.


Then, we came back to the room and did the same thing we did all morning laying around, watching movies and snacking. Dad made over easy eggs on toast that was lovely and that's about all that consisted of our Christmas Day. Dad also purchased tickets for him, mom and me to go to see Stomp tomorrow night!!! :) It will just be us again as Ally will be leaving for the airport to head back to Belfast at around 11am tomorrow. We were supposed to be heading to Bath tomorrow, but we've taken Bath out and we think we'll just take a day trip from London to see Stonehenge and just stay in London for the last couple days. We'll be changing hotels tomorrow as we didn't book this and it's full so we'll be staying somewhere else the last two nights. Dad booked the hotel today and we've come to realize he booked a room with two twin beds so we'll be nice and snug! ;)
