I love London

Sorry I have been absent from the blogging world for awhile...work has been extremely busy and taking up quite a bit of my time even on the weekends. Even though that seem horrible...its just part of the process and means my time in the UK is growing short...which makes Matthew very happy!

Last Sunday I headed back into a London for break...the more time I spend in the burroughs of London the more I fall in love with it. I took the fast train from Reading to London Paddington. And then headed into Chelsea and spent some time around South Kensington...of course enjoy the stores and finally getting to spend sometime in Kensington Palace, the former home of Princess Diana. Of course Matt was palaced out by the time we got there while he was here in London...so I saved it for a later date. Her beautiful dresses are on display and some items from Queen Victoria's childhood...the palace was her birthplace and childhood home.

Then I headed over to Covent Garders. A lovely area full of theathers, the Royal Opera and of course...shopping! On Sunday the area is filled with actors, singers and string quartets giving street performances. A great area to spend some relaxing time...so many familys strolling around. Here are a few pictures of the area...

And then I continued my stroll over to the original Hard Rock cafe...just for a few snap shots....

And then sweet Kyle took me to dinner in Chinatown...and everywhere we went we saw way too much PDA....here we are making fun of one couple...
