Wimbledon - Day 5

The skies parted, and the sun appeared, albeit briefly. At least it looks like we have a better shot at completing a full day of tennis. Breakfast was another cereal bar in the hotel. I am not sure if that's in my best interest, but I haven't settled in to a decent routine yet. We walked over to the Sainsbury's directly across the street as there is a Starbucks Coffee inside, but I ended up passing for a Diet Coke with Lime instead.

Today we chose to take The Tube to the event. That will become my preferred mode of transportation once I get a bit more familiar. The route is fairly short, and the cost is much less than a cab. In addition, there's a short walk of approximately 1.5 miles that means I will get some walking in.

I hope to have some more pictures to come soon. I just haven't had the chance to take any. Maybe I'll start snapping photos on the way in.

We stopped at the grocery store and I picked up some supplies. The hotel mini-bar has sensors meaning you lift it up, you bought it. For that reason, I had them empty it out, and now I have a refrigerator in the room. That means I can keep some cold beer and some diet coke in the room. That's what I needed. Plus, less chance to get charged for something I never actually consumed. Afterward, we stopped in and had a couple of pints in the hotel bar. Not bad beer, though I am still on the hunt for better.

Since the majority of the day was spent in the venue, I didn't get much chance to take photos, had dinner in the venue, and left well after dark. That makes for yet another short post.
