Don't wanna leave her now.....

So after the most beautiful weekend in London leaving the city is going to be even harder.

Friday Anna and I went out in East London for her colleague's art show and then ended up at a really sweet bar near tottenham court. The weather was amazing and it was nice to be able to hang out on roof terraces and not freeze to death.

Saturday we did some extreme exploring. We checked out Abbey Road, St. John's Wood, Primrose Hill, Camden Town and Little Venice. It was soooooooooo nice out and we ended up enjoying some cider along the lock in Camden in true British summer fashion. That is when it hit me that I really didn't want to leave. London's vibe is completely different with everything moving outdoors and I'm really sad I will miss out on it.

Today began with some market-time and then a trip to the Globe Theatre to see King Lear with Anna. Luckily we had seats and didn't get rained on like all the peasants below us and by the time we left it was clearing up for a nice walk past hyde park on the way home.

One week from tonight will be my last night. Not happy about that.

Amsterjammin....

Last weekend we enjoyed our final weekend trip to Amsterdam and it was amazing!

The city is so beautiful and really can only be appreciated by a trip there. Pictures do not do it justice. We spent the two days riding cute little bikes all along the canals and through the Vondelpark in the south west side of town. To keep up our bike riding stamina we enjoyed a few dutch pancakes and the best frites ever! (complete with belgian mayonnaise of course!)

Of course it isnt a trip to Amsterdam without trapezing through the red light district which we did a few times. We made rounds for Bobby to pick out a girl to learn about their pricing. Apparently the average (attractive) girl is 50 euro.....interesting.


After quite a fight with British Airways we returned to London late sunday night with a 125 euro "sorry we screwed you over" gift from BA making our flight paid for plus some. sweeeet. you can pay me to go to Amsterdam anytime.

more to come...
