Saturday was our last real day in London – on Sunday we had to be packed up and out, and off to the airport.
I glossed over a particular spot in my previous posts because we didn’t spend much time there, and returned on Saturday. It was St. Martin-in-the-Fields, a small Anglican church off Trafalgar Square. There’s a cafe down in the crypt, where we had chicken chasseur with potatoes and braised cabbage.
It was really good. Apparently it’s not unusual for churches to have restaurants or coffee shops down in their crypts. It seemed kind of weird to us, walking over things like this on our way to the food line:

It was a quick walk up to BBC headquarters at Television Centre.

Wednesday was the only day we left the greater London area.
It was pretty easy to hop on the tube and make our way out to Heathrow, where we picked up a rental car to take us west.
Guess what I let him pick out?
