just took our time and let him check everything out - he loved the bubble blowers and chased bubbles all over the place. These guys were out on the street shooting bubbles at everybody walking past.

Braedon had a good browse and loved the dinosaurs and animals. He did have his hands full at one stage, a monkey, a glider, a key ring.

I tried to explain that we don't have room to take this stuff home and that we can buy it at home (or most of it)., He was quite happy to put things back and I told him he could choose one thing. So it was a touch choice between Lego and a softtoy monkey and the Lego won out... After he chose his Lego we went and had a coffee and BT had a icecream.


Next stop was the shops - I said to Braedon we had been in Hamleys about three hours and now he has to be patient while we look at the shops for a little while.

I did promise Braedon a ride of the river cat (I remembered promise at Greenwhich) and we caught the river cat from Embankment across to Waterloo and then up to Tower Bridge. The sun was just setting, howeve the photos didn't do it justice.

Next stop was something to eat as we hand't had lunch, although Braedon had maccas after Hamley's.

We stopped at a place called Witherspoons which was a old pub at Tower Bridge. We caught the train back at about 8.00 and got home about 8.30.
