First thing I decided to have today is breakfast. Then I headed to my bus tour, to continue from yesterday. I decided to get off at the Victoria and Albert Museum. I lost track of time in there, spending more than four hours roaming from one exhibition to another, but one caught my eyes first and I’ll talk about it in a while.
After finishing off, I waited for my tour bus outside and it was raining but it eventually turned to snow! I have been waiting for over 30 minutes, so I decided to call it a day and head to a tube station that’ll take me back to my hotel. As I crossed the traffic light, what do I see after me waiting pointlessly for 30 minutes! The Big Tour Bus. You know when you stop to think about something you already made up your mind about and you know what you are going to do! Then why are you thinking about it … RUN … With an open umbrella, I didn’t run, I jumped, big huge steps running back to the bus stop and just as I was boarding, the doors close on me, but I jammed them with my shoulders, I didn’t care, I am getting on this damn bus! Thankfully I did and the driver apologized for not seeing me
The snow was getting thicker and the tour ended at Marble Arch bus stop, I went for dinner and when I got out of the restaurant, I didn’t want to walk back all the way to Paddington. Let me just take the tube and walk to my hotel from there. I go down and the ticket booth was closed due to staff shortage, I had to get one from the machines and they are pretty easy to use
As we were standing, there comes smoke from one side and someone tells the staff that there is something burning, and this girl beside me says: “I’m not getting on the tube to be blown up today!” The staff person says, this has nothing to do with the tube this is the trash section and something must’ve caught fire. I did NOT give a damn, I want to get on the tube and be in my room! Unfortunately, Paddington was not part of the Central line nor Zone one, I got single zone one ticket and got off at Lancaster Gate and safely walked back to my hotel room

I walked through it two times
