Just making it into the city at all is smorgasbord of sights, smells, sounds, with a bit of tactile and vestibular input thrown in for good measure. Rushing through the stalls to make the train, which then moves and sings mechanical songs made for wide-eyed wonder. "Hold on tight!" I urged and realised that the bumping and shaking of the train was something that Malakai and Harlan had never experienced before - it was brand new and every part of them was taking it in.They had to use their whole bodies to rush up the stairs of the double-decker bus and sit at the top with a bird's eye view of Oxford Street.
It was a wonderful experience, and one that I loved to experience through my children's eyes.
