Pater: Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner (and now AJ2 is as well)

As Hubert Gregg once said, maybe it's because Pater's a Londoner that he loves London so.  But what's AJ2's excuse?  On our recent trip, Pater noticed that AJ2 definitely got a funny feeling inside wherever he went, just walking up and down, so maybe he became a Londoner and that's why he loves London town! (If you don't know the song, little of the above will make sense, but you get the idea). 

Of course, there may be some other, more obvious reasons for AJ2's sudden love for London.  Like the view he got across this most beautiful of cities from the London Eye...

...or the amazing London sites we visited (including Trafalgar Square, the National Gallery, Piccadilly Circus, Regent Street, Buckingham Palace and, Pater's favourite, Rueben's Deli) ...
...or the trip to the most amazing toy store in the whole wide world, Hamley's, where AJ2 nearly exploded while trying to decide what to buy...
...or the moment AJ2 became an actual, real, wizard a la Harry Potter at Kings Cross Station...
...or maybe, just maybe, it was the amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience he had at Chelsea Football club with a VIP tour in the morning...

...followed by meeting the players and a great game against Manchester United in the evening...
...or maybe it was all the travelling on London's antiquated transport system (awake and asleep)...
...or possibly hanging out in Pater's old haunts...
Nah, it was none of those.  AJ2 loved London because he got to spend some really great quality time with his Grandpa London, who turned 80 this month. Grandfather and grandson had a great time chatting and ganging up on Pater!

 Of course, as much as Pater and AJ2 are Londoners, our hearts are really in Toronto, as we quickly found out when we flew home...
