My goal was to hit London for a couple of days and then head to Portugal. Once I got here I realized I missed the city and I needed to explore it a few more days. I was craving a high tea and seeing the English gardens. I decided I would put off my flight to PT until this Friday.
While on Facebook and chatting with a friend she called out that her friends were also there and would love to meet up. We planned a dinner and that was so much fun! It was a wine pairing event they already had tickets to and they squeezed me in. I'm not a big drinker but you forget how much you are consuming when you are 'tasting'. It was a good thing a taxi was just outside the door when I gingerly stepped out of the restaurant.
I also had the chance to plan a day in the city with Steve and it's always nice to see him. Even though he is not the 'one', he is a good man and has become a good friend.
He lives just outside of London and needs to come into the city a couple times a week for work so we decided this Wednesday would be a good day. He will be in Chelsea and I'm in a district right next door, so not difficult placements to grab a meal and catch up. He also just visited PT so he will give me a few tips. That is always nice.
I have had a great few days here and loads of beautiful flowers to see, smell and touch!
