After bringing Willa to airport, I took the tube back to City for a bit of aimless walking punctuated by a few final errands. I strolled through Seven Dials one last time in the cold, stopping for a quick bite at Neal’s Yard, and then on to National Gallery. I couldn’t help myself and took a quick tour through Impressionist gallery and perused the Dutch landscape painters. Back at the flat, packing up proved to be a challenging jigsaw puzzle that lasted far too long and led to a late night dinner at my favorite double-decker bus, including a slice of good-bye chocolate cake.
