LONDON

A friend of my from Vet School, Ariel, moved to London recently to work for an out of hours organisation in the UK called VETS NOW (who took over our OOH in January so I love them!!)
Here's some pictures from a weekend I went down to visit her.

I thought this was an interesting house, so I took a picture, obviously I missed out on whatever was across the street that was probably more interesting to take a picture of.









That's a big pan of paella!





Victoria and Albert Museum







The fashion exhibit






Hyde Park


Sister Act the musical!! Too bad no Whoopee.

Crossed over into the Protestant area, some graffiti on the other side of the wall.

Time for 1 more (or maybe 3 more) Guinness at the airport.
