The next morning in London, Friday 12/1/23, we had brunch at Bill's. I enjoyed pancakes, bacon, and a hot latte. My daughter had avocado toast with french fries and coffee.
After breakfast we walked around a bit. We took the tube to South Kensington where the Victoria and Albert museum is located.
My daughter and I had to take a photo near a telephone booth.
We decided to visit the Victoria and Albert Museum.
This museum has six floors to explore sculptures, paintings, jewelry, and fashion.
We saw the famous sweaters that Harry Styles wore.
We left the museum and walked down the block to the famous department store Harrods. We had a great time in Harrods. We spent some time in the food court and shopping for sunglasses and handbags.
By the time we left Harrods we were both very hungry and ready to eat dinner.
We enjoyed our dinner at The Restaurant at The Capital. We both had cocktails and shared mussels.
I loved my lamb chops and my daughter had steak in sauce. The meal came with salads and we shared creme burlee for dessert.
We took an Uber back to our hotel.
Our second day in London was a long and busy day. I was happy to get back to the hotel and go to sleep. I had a great second day in London.
In case you missed Day 1, you can read that HERE. Stay tuned for Day 3 coming soon.
