The ship went into the Thames River after seven.
船は7時過ぎにテムズ川に入った。

Entered the port of Tilbury and after that, I went to Train Station and bought 2day’s Travel card.

この地図からは想像できなかったが、左はドックで壁に覆われ、上方(緑の部分)が市街地(Tilbury Town)です。
右下、クルーズターミナルの向かいに描かれたTilbury Riverside Station(Rail Terminal)は、1982年11月に廃止されております。

There were discounts when collecting 4 people at once and there was a €22 per person, but because the ticket window got crowded and it took time to purchase Ticket, some of them could not wait jumped on the train without bidding. Because I could not imitate it, I paid €33.80, but thanks to the purchase of this Travel card I was able to catch the return ship time.

4人まとめて買えば割引があり、1人あたり22ユーロであったが、窓口が混雑して乗車券購入に時間を要したため、待ち切れぬ何人かは無札で列車に飛び乗って行った。真似するわけにもいかないから、33.80ユーロを払ったが、このトラベルカードを購入しておいたおかげで、帰船時刻に間に合うことができた。

I stayed a family-run hotel.
It’s like scenery in old London, The hotel built in the early nineteenth century.
It has beautiful garden and served English breakfast next morning.

The next day, I took Local tour for Stonehenge.
It was exciting, but the bus went back to London one hour thirty minutes late, so I came back on the boat just in time for the deadline.

London Cruise Terminal
opened in 1930
100万人以上のオーストラリア移民の多くがP&OやOrient Lineの大型旅客船でこのターミナルから出航、また1948年にはカリブ海からの移住労働者がSS Empire Windrushで到着しました。
※ Windrushの名は現代の英国の多文化社会の始まりに例えられる。
