Moving Home

Bye bye London! I am gone. I moved home, went to Bath. I liked living in London lots. Especially with my Dan, and in my lovely flat. We did a bit of touristing around London too. Here's our final days there.
Checking myself out.
 Starting to pack.
 Hanging around packing before off for adventures.
 Got the awesome Thames River boat.
 all the way to....
 Grenwich.
 Where magic happens.
 The Meridian, where time begins. It was magical.
 It was a pretty day.
 Went under the Thames in a tunnel.
 Went to Tower Bridge
 Saw the old engines.
 Learnt stuff about the bridge
 Stood on the bit where the two halves of the bridge meet
 Went to see the latest exhibition in the Turbine Hall in the Tate
 There were lots of seeds
And went home and did some packing
and carried on packing

and yes they do make you fart
