The theme was 'hippies' and most of the floats were 60s or 70s based and she loved it, there was even a few disney princesses chucked in for good measure. it was fun to see all the Boroughs of London come together and put something on, Even schools from USA came over to participate and there was a group of cheeleaders that Tills fell in love with ( she is now going to be a cheerleader when she is a big girl )
Some of the costumes on the participants were really good and you could see alot of thought and effort had gone into it
Tilly Absoulutely loved the Scooby Doo float, but lets be honest - who doesnt like Scooby? isnt it the cartoon that most of us grow up on?
Even the older kids sit down and watch Scooby Doo as they watched it when they were little.
After a while Tilly said she was cold and wet (we had watched the Parade for an hour and half and it was still going!) so we headed back to Charing Cross to go over the river to The Dungeons (tillys choice). But i bought her a hot chocolate from Costa and she drank it, the had an asthma attack and threw up in the train station as she couldn't quite catch her breath, soon after she fell asleep and we went to the dungeons and as i queued and started the tour, she slept. Waking up not long after it had started.
We did the tour of the London Dungeons then i told her we had to back to the train now, but there was no way she was letting me get away without taking her on the London Eye, so we used our Merlin passes again and got on there for free too. The London Eye in the dark is so good as you can see London all lit up.
Eventually it was time to go back to waterloo, and to make our way home. Tilly didnt want to, but didnt understand how late it would be when we got home, so she was soon bribed with a MacDonalds chicken nugget meal :)
I couldnt think of a better way to start the new year than on an adventure
Happy new year to you all
