A very exciting day today – Poppa's birthday! When mummy and granny got up we all went in the kitchen and Poppa opened his cards and presents. He loved my card that I made him, and the biscuits that mummy bought him.
We went up to London on the tube, dropped our big case off at Liverpool St station and then caught a black London cab to the Festival Hall on the south bank of the Thames, it was the same place I'd been to on Monday!
We had lunch at the Festival Hall, then walked along by the river, past the London Eye, to the Sea Life Aquarium. It was fantastic – there was so much to see and do. We saw loads of sting rays, sharks, turtles and fish, and I marked off things I'd seen on my special list. Nana Maureen borrowed a wheelchair so she could keep up with me. At the end we saw a crocodile slithering off a rock into the water, then we saw penguins, and one of them jumped out of the water and waddled onto the snow, it looked very funny. Poppa bought me a stuffed Nemo fish, and I bought a stuffed penguin with my money.
Then we got into another taxi and drove back to Liverpool St, where mummy and me got onto a train to Norwich, to go back to visit Granddad Patrick and Geoff.
