Breakfast.

As I ordered the vegan breakfast and Erika ordered the regular full English she ended up with a mountain of food she couldn't finish while I had a very dainty plate which was gone in a few mouthfuls.

Erika in Subway, where we got a sandwich to eat on the train home. Options around Plymouth station were rather limited! Also disappointingly it turned out Erika didn't really like Subway - apparently the vegetarian "patty" thing was too spicy.

Erika doing some Japanese homework on the train. It was a long drawn out journey but happily it all worked out, especially as there were train strikes today and this was one of only very few trains running.

18:15:33
Back at Paddington.
