First Days In London

It was so exhilarating to land in Heathrow!  I spent the next hour attempting to find an uber/cab/anything with four wheels please…. and breathed a huge sigh of relief when I made it to my student accommodation.  My phone’s battery died just as I stepped through the doors.

This is where I had my first meal in London!  It is on Pratt street which makes me think of everyone back in Brooklyn.

The National Portrait Gallery was high on my list of places to visit.

Each bridge is so different!  I liked this pink one and the shadows that it cast on the road.

I went on an extra nerdy tour of the Houses of Parliament.

The city was beautifully lit up after I left!

Tate Britain was gorgeous!  I couldn’t bring myself to leave.  There have been musicians playing inside the galleries of many of the museums I have visited.  Listening to live music  inspired by paintings is so impactful.

This is the book I’m reading at the moment.  It has been nice to have a calming activity while getting used to the madness of a new and exciting city.

To the right of the photo is a TURMERIC LATTE!!!  I have a new favourite drink.
