Monday 22nd October ~ Misty trip to Highgate

Started around 10.30 with Gemini VLW72 on the 141 from HGL to Wood Green, where I visited the library to return 'Street of Joy', a good film it was. From there it was Enviro400 T203 from Wood Green to Finsbury Park on the W3 via a misty Alexandra Palace. From Finsbury Park I took another Enviro400, TE1079 to Highgate Village on the 210, then it was Enviro400 TE921 on the 271 to Finsbury Square, running via Canonbury Road and New North Road.

Had a coffee at Pret-a-Manger on Finsbury Square, then walked to Bishopsgate and caught Gemini VLW90 on the 242 to High Holborn, just after the Kingsway junction. Then it was Gemini 9039 on the 188 from Kingsway to Waterloo.

Two ALX400s on the 243 parked at Waterloo

From Waterloo I caught Citaro MEC27 on the 521 to Holborn Circus which ran through the Strand Underpass which was pretty exciting. Still a misty and murky Autumn day, I had another coffee break at Holborn Circus before walking down Fetter Lane at around 15.30 to catch Enviro400 T157 on the 341 back to HGL.
