10 October 2024 London: Off to Mayfair We Go!

 



In London we are located very close to Hyde Park in Mayfair at a nice AirBnB.  The ride was pretty easy, as this time we stayed on the major roads.  The driver was the same person and we arrived at the stay a bit early.  Luckily it was a keyless entry so we did not have to stand outside and wait.  After getting inside and settling in a bit we walked down to Selfridges.  We have a soft spot for this store after watching the PBS docuseries about its inception.  Next stop was Marks and Spenser's for food.  We got a very tasty four cheese pizza for dinner and it was an early night for both of us.

Not Herbert Hoover, more likely the vacuum

These corner rooms must come at a premium
