Nope. Football not my cup of tea.

Londeners are mostly Remainer. No surprise that lobbying for another vote....but that is a betrayal of democracy. They should either have voted properly (and not cast protest vote) or move their lazy bum and go out to vote. 

 

Not really betrayal of democracy as the result of the Brexit vote was only ever advisory not mandatory

2-7) Royal observatory and meridian line

 

8) Atomic clock

 

9) OK OK I not old liao after seeing this

You drove to Greenwich? If so you are spared walking up the slope  I used to see a lot of visitors struggling trekking  it and many needed a break or 2 in between.

I used to walk my dog there every morning and late afternoon.

Nope. I took the tube from willesden to canary Wharf and took the DLR (direct line rail?) a few stations. Can't remember off hand the station name. Then walk the rest of the way.

 

Yup I trekked up the hill. Not too bad but it gets steep at the end (assuming it's the one facing the park). There seems to be another entrance but I dunno where it is.

 

If you remember this line it's slightly below the observatory and accessible by a gate (no need to pay). The path leads somewhere but I never trekked it to the end. To the right of the signage in the second picture there is a gate which leads to where I took the first picture. But the path doesn't stop there. I did walk along it for a while but I never followed it to the end.

This path leads to the road that you see when you enter the park main gate.

 

Easier to take public transport even if can be expensive. At least don’t have to face the jams, looking for parking lot & high parking fee :)

Harry Potter, lego display and a super cold and snowy London.

Went to Bath today. Super cold and snowy. Even worse than London.

 

Explored the Roman baths as well. Seems like this is a very exceptionally cold winter.

 

Went to a nearby hilltop to look down at Bath from above. Had a small snowfight with some kids. Thank goodness I wore my hiking shoes and did not lose anything in the snow. One can get caught up in snow fights It was my friend's kids so it's not random kids.

Did you go to Stonehenge or Salisbury Cathedral??
