A Few Days In London

Spread the love

So, I have been to London many times and enjoy it but somehow it was never a place I wanted to return again and again like Rome or other cities. But this time was different. Ten of us made our way to the city and got on the Gatwick express and then a couple of tube stops later we were at our hotel. I had forgotten how crowded a big city like London can be….plus we were a big crowd ourselves and it was very hard to maneuver… but inspite of that, it was a lot of fun…

We stayed near the London eye and walked around everywhere we could. It was quite a sight to see, 10 people moving around, trying to keep up with each other while trying to find bathrooms and snacks…

We ate fish and chips, burgers, pies, soft ice cream, scones and lots of other local fare. 20150704_150141
A friend told me about a food festival happening at the south bank close to where we were staying. We made our way there on the last day and decided to eat dinner as we were now 14 people! We met more family on the way who were visiting from India- it is amazing how small the world has become… Anyway, we all bought different foods, beer and wine and enjoyed the evening filled with noise and crowd20150704_191633
I ate at a Spanish truck that was serving yummiest pork belly dish and scallops that I sipped with a delicious glass of Prosecco. I then bought a Vietnamese duck and pork burger served with rosemary fries….. they were out of this world. We finished off with delicious organic frozen yogurts!

All in all it was a great trip- a bit hectic and my daughter didn’t get to see a lot of things since we were in a large group… so I told her, no worries… we need to return real soon!

Off to Edinburgh!
