“Travel comes from some deep urge to see the world, like the urge that brings up a worm in an Irish bog to see the moon when it is full...” – Lord Dunsany

(Early morning ride in the train from Wembley) |
Date: 23 May 2017 (Tuesday)
Route: London free and easy
Hotel: Travelodge London Wembley (£66.50)
As Britain continued to grieve after a bomb attack earlier this week in Manchester, extra armed police were on UK streets amid a high state of alert. The train from Wembley was literally empty!
As earlier planned, today we visited The Madame Tussauds Wax Museum. We had earlier bought the tickets on-line at £32/pax. The busiest period at Madame Tussauds is between 12 noon and 3pm, so we booked the earliest slot available. There were armed policemen everywhere and visitors were subject to thorough checks. Because of the safety alert, the museum will not admit visitors with large backpacks. Luckily we traveled light.
The major highlights of the wax museum were the waxworks of famous and historic people, film characters, favorite Celebrities, Marvel Super Heroes, The Royal Family, the Star Wars Experience and other incredible waxworks on display.
