The London Underground

We did quite a few trips on the London Undergound, I couldn't believe how long the escalator was to go down from street level to the first platform and then at some of the stations there were escalators down again, it didn't pay to think about how far underground we were really!! But they are so fast and Jenny and I thought we were timing the trains perfectly as we didn't have to wait more than a minute each time we went to get on one, then we realised that there were just so many trains on each line that they actually must turn up every couple of minutes or so. When David and I were leaving London to catch a train to Euston station in the underground and then onto Liverpool, we were trying to get into Green Park Station about 9.00 am and it seemed like everyone else in London was trying to leave Green Park station!!! We had our suitcase with us and it was so hard to get through the crowd to get down to our platform!! The underground sure beats trying to get around on the buses on the crowded streets I think. One one of the trips on the underground there were a couple of people who had there dogs with them. Jenny and I sat down and the man next to me had one of those bull terrier looking dogs who looked very mean. Well the dog looked at Jenny and Jenny looked at the dog, the next minute the dog was over with its head on Jenny's knee peering up at Jenny for a pat!!! And I was thinking how much Angela (my sister) would hate it!!!!
