My boyfriend took me on a surprise weekend to London for our 1st year anniversary!
Since he lived there and I have been there a few times, we skipped most of the cliché tourist attractions & focussed on getting to know the city a bit better!
Day 1
Arrival at St-Pancras station
Cab to the hotel
Walking hand in hand over the Millennium bridge to 'Borough Market'
Nice market with lots of fresh foods and yummie snacks
Afternoon walking to Covent garden for a pint at the Punch & Judy
We walked up the hill to Primrose Hill to see the best view on London
And then, all the way to Camden Town!
The hometown of Amy, but we did'nt see her, although we were in her favourite pub, drinking pints again (Lisa drunk)!
Dinner at The Sanderson Hotel miauw (Fusion-Malaysian)
Day 2
Brick Lane
Nice trendy area with cool shops, tags and things to eat!
'Poppies' for a nice fish and chips
Perfect for a sunday afternoon stroll
&
Walking along the Thames to the major hotspots: The Big Ben, Houses of Parliament and the Queen's little house
And Dinner at Barbecoa, a jamie oliver restaurant
Very nice food in a nice setting with view on St-Pauls cathedral
Day 3
SHOPPING! only problem: They have Euro rates for Pounds, so everything is 1.5 times more expensive. Grrrrrr
Thank you baby for a lovely weekend and a super year
Thanks for reading!!!
