London 2015 Day 13 July 12 Back to London

We ate a big English breakfast in our Canterbury Hotel, and then went out for a walk. Weather is cloudy but no rain. Found the Roman Museum, which chronicled Canterbury's history from the first Roman soldiers sent by Claudius in 43 CE. This museum had exhibits about daily life in Roman Britain. There were reconstructions of shoemaking, jewelry, hairdressing, etc. and some drawings of how the town was laid out.

After checking out of our very nice day convenient hotel, we walked to the station for the train to Charing Cross, changing again at Ashford. I had requested early checkin this time so we should arrive back in good time. In fact it was almost two hours from Canterbury to London, but nice smooth train. Arrived at the Amba Hotel and got nearly the same room but on the third floor which means fewer lift changes! Unpacking a real chore as we had left our large suitcases here!
