London Town

Hubby and I have been to London several times (mostly with work -he's back again tomorrow!), but we haven't really gotten a chance to see the sights of London. This weekend, we decided to spend time touring around the city. It's such a lovely place! We had one nice sunny day and one terribly rainy day. 

We visited the following sites: 
  • Victoria & Albert Museum - Loved it. It's free admission and the building is nice and grand. There was a fashion exhibit, and I really enjoyed it (Hubby, not so much). 
  • Pho mile -AMAZEMENT (requires its own post) 
  • The Natural History Museum - Meh... more for kids, but it's free so worth a pop into the museum to see the elevator ( I know, random.)
  • Platform 9 and 3/4!!!! 
  • The British Museum - Really enjoyable. I particularly liked the "Enlightenment Room". It was set up like an old library.  
  • Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park - Lovely and large Christmas market. One of the biggest ones I've ever been to. 
  • Thanksgiving Dinner at a friend's house- American Pumpkin pie. YUM!

How long do we have to wait until the Pho Mile post? I might just fly over for that!

Also love Kieran's broken umbrella, classic.

Just until tomorrow... it was so good...totally worth flying over for! :)

The umbrella....this is why I never have one. They are useless in the wind!
