The London Spring Tour 2017- Day 1

Had another travel adventure getting to our hotel last evening. Our cab broke down half way to the hotel! The cab driver, who was very nice older gentleman, said "The engine light has come on so I need to pull over & check under the bonnet." (All said with a proper English accent of course.)  Turns out we had a broken fan belt and were leaking water. So we "collected our bits" & out we went to find another cab. One and half hours & 136 pounds later, we arrived at our hotel. 

Sweet view from our room located at Royal Victoria Dock. 

 

After checking in & having some delicious pizza in the hotel bar, which was packed with people watching the soccer game, we jumped into bed for a big day of dancing ahead.  

Out of bed bright & early at 7:30am & had a full English breakfast with a great view of the water. Meal already consumed in picture below in case you were wondering. 😋

 

After breakfast we connected with the LST group & met everyone & set out for the London tube to go to the Pineapple Dance Studios for morning dance classes.  

Riding the tube, walking the tube & arriving at Pineapple Studios.  

 

    

Pineapple Dance Studios has 11 dance rooms at it. Zoe took two 90 minute classes, one was contemporary jazz & the second was jazz but the combination for the second class was more lyrical.  Man what a workout.  I was tired & sweaty just watching them.  But of course after the first 2 classes they were all ready to hit the next studio location for 3 more hours of classes!

After the morning classes we went for lunch. Yep you guessed it, Fish & Chips.  With the biggest damn piece of fish I've ever seen!  

 

Did a little sight seeing after lunch prior to heading to the evening dance classes.  What is that guy doing?  

 

What?  A phone booth?!!  Zoe, get back on your iPhone & let's go!  Did I really just write that. 😂

 

 

Ok time to get back on the tube to travel to Studio 68 for more dance classes.   Catch ya later!  👯
