Our one day of summer...

One Saturday, in Mid-April, it got up to 20 Degrees C and sunshine! We had to enjoy it so we took our second hand dinning room chairs onto the 'patio' and had a bit of ghetto bbq. We hope this wasn't the one and only day of summer this year...




The chicken Monster


Grant's the BBQ master!!




London II


Trafalgar square!


Covent Garden Market

The Maple Leaf pub - it's supposed to be Canadian but is very disappointing, the chicken wings were a bit crap.


And, back to Gordon's wine bar again!



And sleepy on the train home late Monday night!

London I

EASTER LONG WEEKEND!!!
Jumped on a train early Friday morning and we're in London by 10am! Visiting Mark, Krista's old roommate at Krista's old London Flat.

First stop was Belgo, for some Belgian food and beer

I spent the day wandering around and shopping and Grant hung out with Mark and checked out Borough market

Met up with Rhea, an old friend of Grant's from way back when who lives in London. Here having a nice glass of port outside Gordon's wine bar.

Then we met up with another old friend of Grant's from High school, Stephan, who happened to be visiting London then also from Istanbul!

Late night Pizza at the very first Pizza Express

More shopping
