First trip to Europe! I am excite! farewell message from G:
had a brilliant kebab sammich my first night there and crashed out. woke up the next day for breaky with train, jason, and his man vasili:
coffee and cadbury's chocolate on toast on the balcony. awesome.
also made heaps of rice krispie treats for jason to take to work. red, white, and blue sugar balls on top. of course this was all to out do the canadian co-worker who brought stuff the week before. nothing fuels creativity like spite.
a local place for local people near the tube:
x-ray car!
one of the things i noticed about london is that the buildings are all shades of brown and beige. not a lot of color going on but the DOORS are all very colorful and different. much like the british people who don't dress too colorfully but wear colorful accessories like a red tie or purple and green socks.
went to the Columbia road flower market (open only on sunday mornings) in Bethnal Green and had an amazing time. flowers, food, and music!
we ate HEAPS of samosas and falafels from this guy. he kept saying, "you're back!"
it was a very crowded street but we slowly made out way down. saw so many beautiful plants and flowers:
and shops that sold coconut bowls as well:
and look who we found! James came to join us! let the reunion begin!
ancient roman ruins under the streets on London:
Spitalfields Market:
yum! ate too much!
Sunday was a great day to walk around the city:
stopped by for the Electricity Showroom for a pint before dinner:
so much fun to hang with the old gang again:
cathy joined us for vietnamese dinner on kingsland road before all the guys took trains home:
