Day !0 - National Theater and Kew gardens.

Last day on the London Pass. 
First we went to the National Theater for the back stage tour, Sorry No Photo's again. This Theater is a busy place and the Staff were really enjoying their jobs, great tour.

When that finished it was quick train trip on the tube to Kew Gardens. This was the last place for us to use the London Pass.
 The Palm house wasn't that interesting as most of the palm and ferns were from Australia and New Zealand. So we're already seen them before.
 But the architecture is great.
 So it was off to the modern "Princess of Wales Conservatory".
 It was filled with lots of different zones and was enjoyable to walk through.
In the tropical zones they were cleaning out the Water Plants.
 and the Flowers were large and beautiful.
 as were the palms from the Americas.
 Kew Place was closed as expected.
 But the Garden avenues were Ideal and alive even in winter
 Lets not forget the pagoda as well
 Or the modern Japanese Garden
 Or the birds, just waiting for you to sit and eat lunch.
 I quietly took a photo in the Marianne North gallery, What an Artist, great to see.
 On the way home we got to see the Shard as the night lights were turned on.
It was a Foggy night and lights really looked good. It marked an end to a great two weeks.
