Wyndham Hotel

Well, Jens, Jana, and Mutti started the first leg of vacation.

Dropped them off at 3:30am at the airport. We had about two and a half hours of sleep😳

Im so sad because this is the first time since we got married that we vacationed separately. I am also excited because it has always been a dream of mine to travel with Ayrial by ourselves.

As a single mother at the time, I made promises to her in hopes that God would create the opportunity for \240me to show my daughter the world.

We have been through a lot these last 14 years and it is truly a blessing that we have this time together.

I truly thank my husband for being our gift from God and loving us for who we are as we are. You have helped to elevate our lives and we are able to see so many possibilities.

Have fun in Florida because wenwillnin London!!

Stay tuned…

They made it to Florida. So happy and relieved.

So you know it’s always an adventure right?

Jens picked up his car…jerkface got a convertible. I don’t know why I was surprised.

Niiiice!

Then they broke it and got another hot ride!

I had a peaceful breakfast by myself at the hotel.

Spinach omelet, hash browns, and pancakes

It was actually good. I ate it all. Now I’m going back to sleep for an hour so I can get ready to go.

We are ready!! Made it to the airport umm 3 hours early. It took no time getting through checkin and TSA.

The airport has truly changed.

Vantage West (Stop Q)

Aug 17 2022

So leaving on the plan Ayrial took a pic and asked all to take a similar picture.

Come on Mike! Where you at bro!

So we made it ya’ll!

So the roads are definitely different driving in the opposite side.

I’m trying to figure out why this cab driver is acting like he can’t hear me! It is hot as hell in here! Lol.

And we have been in this cab all of about 15 minutes and the rate is 46 British pounds already. It take an hour to get to our hotel 😳

Driving along really looks like we are in a movie.

😁

Horse jumping anyone?

This gives me Mary Poppins Vibes. Lol

Art Museum

City of Westminster

So we get bucket boys. They get jugglers

@jenneaklingenberg

Aug 18 2022

We started out with breakfast T Oeter’s Cafe across the street from the hotel.

Ayrial had a Tuna sandwich and I had some suspicious white eggs and hashbrowns

Here we were on our way to the Shake Shack

We got hungry by this time so we walked down to the Shake Shack. When we were leaving a guy asked Ayrial if she was going to eat her chips . She said no and told him she ate off of them. He said he didn’t care and took them and ate them😳

So we went walking around looking for the Atika thrift store justice told us about.

We were walking in the neighborhoods and found a neighborhood with a bunch of stores and restaurants. The restaurant’s were lavishly decorated which was really nice.

So what we learned was that fries are called chips. The cheese is nasty and grainy😜 so I ate the plain fries.

So we took this picture for Ayrial’s manager

Reading in the middle of the street😂

Chicken tenders were pretty good

Ayrial wanted me to take a picture

Today we took a tour of London, well one of the tours. We wanted to go around first to see the city, then we will get out to walk around.

I got pictures of things but we were moving too fast that I don’t know which was which so just enjoy the beauty of the city.

Starbucks

So just know that Starbucks is not the same here!! This is all they had on the menu. They looked at us like we were crazy. Lol. So I had a chicken Ceaser wrap sandwich for breakfast.

This is the Tower of London

Where Henry VIII killed his wives once he got tired of them😳 Didn’t see the need to go I side!

Tower of London Bridge

The Shard

This habiscus tea was sugarless!

Aug 19 2022

So we took a tour bus around the city after we left the Tower of London

Going on the Tower of London Bridge

The tour bus took us to Piccadilly Circus and we did some shopping

Oldest church in London All Hallows’ 675 AD

Had to get the phone booth

Don’t remember who that is. Lol

A lot of statues are high on podiums

The London Eye

This is the London Bridge

This is their New York

Big Ben

Parfüm Shop

So this place would not let us in because Ayrial had holes in her Jeans.

Krispy Kreme donuts!!

They love Alley’s !!

They had a whole area of shops! And a row of food places

Big Ben again

So we stopped for lunch in Piccadilly Circus at Pastaio.

Clams in white wine sauce

This was probably the best food Inhad since I got here

Ayrial shopping for jeans

So we went and bought her some jeans because no one is going to deny me entrance as though I can’t afford to shop there!

So we go back to the store and purchas Jens some cologne….then Ayrial realized that the store we went into was not the one we were not allowed to go in. Lol. 😂 Itvwas the door around the corner. Well Jens got some nice cologne out of it. 😄

Ayrial had a lemon pasta she of course didn’t like

Oh, she was dodging a bee who wanted the lemon in her pasta😜

This was like the magnificent mile but longer and a bunch more stores!

London Victoria Coach Stop 10, London SW1W 9UD, UK

Aug 19 2022

So I am about to lose my mind. We were out shopping and due to the strike the bus services from the tour got all crazy!

They had us get off the bus with no direction so we were standing around for 45 minutes. The problem is, our lion king show starts at 7:30 and we would not have enough time to make it to the hotel and back to the theater district.

So. What did we do??! After waiting an hour we got on a bus that was not going the same rout. It went part of the way
