This place is definitely on my bucket list for the future!

[@FamilyFreedom]

That's great to hear Chloe! We had no idea how amazing Battersea Power Station was!! 🤗

[@IcYMilliex]

Looks fun 🤩

[@paularoberts2129]

Hi guys What a treat this video was I showed my husband as well and he really enjoyed looking at the structure and all the bits from the past Such a great video Will look forward to your shopping haul there Have a great week xx❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@FamilyFreedom]

Glad you enjoyed it Paula! 👍

[@beckscroft18]

Absolutely loved this and what it represents. I truly am so glad they've kept the History of the place Alive while making something entirely new and enjoyable also. Something for everyone, you guys never cease to amaze me ❤

[@shelleyanne3522]

Yes I enjoyed it. It was so interesting how they preserved some of the old history with new and modern. I lived in London for a few months on a working visa from Australia. I lived in a place called Edgeware ( or something similar to that) use to catch the tube into convent garden, Piccadilly and I walked to the palace too. I worked in a Jewish nursing home for a little bit. And in Woolworths in Edgeware. I did like London it has so much history to look at. Anyway Australia is pretty hot at the moment. My son gave me Lego for Christmas. I found it relaxing and like you can go off into another place in your imagination. Thankyou for your videos

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Shelley, we're glad that you enjoyed this video, we appreciate you watching! 😊 It's nice that you got to experience London for a few months, we'd love to visit Australia one day!! 😊🇦🇺

[@lululane3437]

Hi guys, I remember the power station when I was younger its amazing the transformation and yet it still has some of the original features, I hope you had a amazing time and it’s so good to see you all again

[@imightbetash]

A bit of a distance, but swindon designer outlet has so much of the original train yard architecture inside it! I bet you guys would love it if you loved battersea! It is probably a chunk smaller though

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for the recommendation. We'll bear that in mind if we're traveling anywhere near there 👍

[@Oururbanhomestead1966]

JoJo is growing up so fast yet he still gets excited by a playground. He is an amazing young man who will change the world

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thank you Annette that's very kind of you to say those things about JoJo 🙏

[@mered30]

I love when places like this are repurposed instead of being left to rot because it’s like a living history to me

[@mxfolkard]

What a lovely vlog, me thinking the same as Bob “are you sure this isn’t just a power station” but it looks like such a lovely place just to go to even without shopping, so glad you enjoyed going. #freegang #livebutnotlive #justkeeprising 💚💚

[@happyabbie10]

Battersea generally reminds me of Hetty feather. I wanna go now!! I do wonder it's steaming tho haha I like how Katie talks as if she knew the exact old layout xx

[@suemarie5625]

We were there last year in July. We started off by going up the tower which was amazing. I hate heights and very nearly backed out from going up, but so glad I did. Outside they had massive artificial grass chairs and settees where people could watch the tennis on the massive screens. They had a tennis court set up, a running track and a small bowls / boules area right beside the river. We returned in November, and enjoyed the Christmas trees aligned on the first floor. Outside was an ice skating rink and a gingerbread Photo Booth. We had lunch/ snack in a French cafe which was lovely. We shall return again in the summer, to visit Battersea park and I definitely will have a glance in the shopping centre. Certainly a very interesting day out.

[@FamilyFreedom]

That sounds wonderful Sue Marie, you have made us want to go back to Battersea Power Station in the Summer and at Christmas! Thank you for sharing your lovely experience there! 💚

[@marieharris-j2w]

Jojo’s like a sponge, he just soaks up information to learn anything, i imagine he’ll have soo many talents in his late teens/20’s, good for you Jojo❤

#livebutnotlive from Hell’s Kitchen! This morning, it was 22*F on my way to church. Luckily, I was cycling, so that kept me good and warm. Battersea Power Station is remarkable (if not just a tad creepy)! I love that they’ve transformed what was derelict and abandoned to something beautiful and useful for people in the area. Btw, I’m like Bob with money - I hardly ever spend anything, even my pocket money when I was a child. I only buy things which I truly need and have needed for a while. My winter coat is 23 years old! And still in good condition. What I like about being frugal is not only the money I save, but the stress of accumulated clutter.

[@CatrinJones-xf8yt]

❤🎉 yay was just wondering what to watch. I was here recently for an Apple course at the Apple HQ, very cool place

[@FamilyFreedom]

Thanks for clicking on this video! It really is a cool place, we're glad you got to go! 😊

I am Manchester it cold and we hade snow there is snow on the ground it cold today like your video

[@FamilyFreedom]

We would love some snow here in London 😀

[@angielovesjoe91]

#LIVEBUTNOTLIVE from cold Cheltenham, it's freezing, it's like u in London! 🥶

[@SuperMissblueeyes]

That's awesome! You should totally do a video of staying in that hotel. I bet there's more historical info & artefacts in there.

[@joanfreestone1707]

Wow. You could never get bored in London. So many amazing places to see. I wish we had those plant-based restaurants here in Perth. I had to smile when you said "summer scarf". I bought a jacket for winter. It's an English one and it said it was "summer weight" which made us chuckle. If I wore it in summer (or a scarf) I'd die of heat stroke! Still, I'd be very happy to rug up to be in London. I love it.

[@ameliahunt9993]

Hello from the commonwealth of Kentucky! It is 15 degrees f here and we have around 12 inches of snow on the ground here right now.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Wow! ⛄️🇺🇸

[@karenmar1529]

What a cool place to visit, shop and eat. Glad you all went and had a good time. The food looked delicious and didn't know Jojo could play some piano too so nice. 🤗

[@lanamitchell6592]

Hi family freedom hope you are well and having a good day! Didn't expect this vlog today! Great surprise! Was put of going to the power station as expensive shops we can't afford but I think the lego shop might have changed my mind for me to go there😂😂 Thar polaroid lego camera is soooooo cool!! I need it omg!😂😂 The lift reminds me of Charlie and the chocolate factory! When I was on the train the other day I saw the smoke in the chimney on that one and I'm like ummm is it ment to be smoking😂😂 I was probably going past on the train whilst you guys where in the lift,imagine that😂😂 Katie rocking her new jacket!! Such a lovely jacket!💚 Thank you for this vlog! A shop with jellycats aswell!!!😱😱 I started collecting them but I get them from the charity shops as there cheaper. Take care Just keep rising 💚🌿🌻

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey Lana, we're glad that you enjoyed this video and hope you are having a good day! 😊 Yes they do have expensive shops there, but we still found it fun to walk around in and explore 👍 The lift is especially worth it, and yes it is like the one from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! 😃 We hope you have a lovely day 😊 Just Keep Rising 💚🌿🌻

[@fionaraeburn9080]

I agree with you Katie. I feel dizzy just watching that.

[@davidthescottishvegan]

Another awesome vlog Katie, Bob and JoJo. I am live not live from cold 🥶 Scotland. Still have an annoying cough that I have had for a while but I will endure and fight it. Love 🥰 the vlog and love 💕 Family Freedom. Yes you need to do a shopping challenge in Marks and Spencers Food.

[@FamilyFreedom]

Hey David, thanks for watching and we hope that cough clears up soon!! 😊

[@ShaneGilbert-cx4th]

Hi ALL, that looked like an amazing day OUT . Take CARE ALL, AND keep safe . 😄😄😄😄👍👍👍

In Glasgow it is very windy and maybe snow. Or a storm

Thank you. Lovely tour, lovely family. Peace and blessings. ❤️❤️❤️

[@catherineclark2949]

What an amazing place, really loved the tour. I wouldn't be able to go as I am scared of heights. The lift experience was wonderful and to see the panoramic view of London from the top, definitely need a clear day. What a great shopping experience xx

[@ChloeSinclair-jt5kj]

I have had a really bad day feeling down but as soon as you guys uploaded you made my day.🤗 I have never actually heard of this place before and can't wait to see what it's like.❤

I live about a 20min walk away from here! I love walking through Battersea Park and by the river on my way! I love what has been done with it and how the features of the original power station remains both internally and externally!

That's cool that you live near and are able to visit frequently. We love how much life it brings to the area now 😊

i must go there xxx

[@FamilyFreedom]

You'll love it! 😊

[@tonycasey3183]

I can't see Battersea Power Station without thinking about Pink Floyd. They should get some pink pig-shaped blimps hovering over it. At least the Lego Shop referenced it and they put some info about the album cover which is, in itself, iconic.

[@mered30]

I’m looking at some of the restaurants at the battersea power station and the vegan options at Megan’s look so AMAZING!!

[@annecoley1233]

I had absolutely no idea about this place! Thank you so much for another amazing video! Will deffo have to visit there one day! ❤️

[@FamilyFreedom]

It's definitely worth it!

[@MissFlutterGirl]

Wow! I never realised just how much was inside. I knew about the apartments but not about the shopping centre and eateries. I’ll definitely give it a visit the next time in London seeing family.

[@photography23art92]

Awh love the comical dynamics between jojo and his mum as (jojo is getting older.) Jojo see’s the Lego he wants oh I’ll get this turns to walk away mum stops him in his tracks and swiftly in a humorous way asks what is it. 🤣

[@LittleBitofSunshine]

I’m definitely the Katie in our relationship because I would buy the world and my other half is always having to stop me 😂 That’s such a cool shopping centre though I love when they repurpose an old beautiful building and make it something useful and keep the magic alive instead of letting it rot and become derelict. That glass elevator reminded me of Charlie and the chocolate factory though 😂 We need a food shopping video from that market though because it’s so fancy looking 😂 Also I seen a TikTok recently that you might like for Jojo it was basically a ‘I’ll buy you anything you want as long as you can say the item in Spanish’ 🇪🇸

[@sharonellis8776]

This was a cool place for you to visit. I love the West Quays centre in Southampton. xx

[@FamilyFreedom]

Yes! the Power station is amazing! I don't think we've ever been to West Quays in Southampton! We'll have to visit one day 🤗
