We arrived in Heathrow this morning . We had a good sleep between Singapore and Munich. Because of my onward plans to come home via Missouri and to keep my extra costs to a minimum, we have to fly with Lufthanser, hence an extra stop in Europe, Munich.
We came straight to our hotel near Waterloo station and were very pleased to have immediate acess to our room and a shower and clean clothes. We wandered down to the river and found lots of people out and about. A pleasant atmosphere. We enjoyed a good coffee at a Le Pain Quotidien - a chain I frequented in NYC in January. Their house-made gluten free bread was delicious, based entirely on seeds. I digress. On the way back to our hotel I discovered , when i tried to use them, that the 2 GBP coins I had been given in my change by the cafe we had lunch at were no longer legal tender. We went back. She feigned suprise that she had given them to me, but I distinctly remember her looking at them as she gave them to me. The 2 coinsare unmistakenly different. Ah well.
Dinner at the bar/restaurant attached to the hotel was OK. Because I had paid our hotel bill, I was not able to charge the dinner to our room. Bit odd.
Very tired. Early to bed.
