Notes
We'll arrive around 8 and take the airlink shuttle to the Busaras Bus station and rent lockers here for about 5E. The rest is pretty flexible but theres a double decker bus tour that loops the city; its the kind of thing that you can get on and off all day at like 20 stops. Its 15E, but if we book online we get 20%off. Once we've done the loop we'll get our stuff and take the bus back to the airport.

Alternatively we can just wander Camden and if we want to go to a bar or club just ask the hotel staff. Picacadilly Circus is suppose to be like Time Square, so crowded and touristy, but fun.

We ought to check out and leave the city by 2:30-3:00 so we can make it to Canterbury. The cathedral closes at 6. So, we can go to Westminster, take the tour, then bus/tube back, get our stuff and drive to one of the markets or even just around the city. We'll just wing it.
