London pics

As promised, here are the pics from my last night in London with Paola and Sean (thanks guys, I had fun!)

Got off at the tube station and took this picture

We had dinner at an Italian restaurant (forgot the name)

then went around Soho (for the first time, hopefully not the last)

we walked and walked until we got to Chinatown

went to The Exchange Bar for drinks...my new faves are the Classic Pimms and Tropical Temptation

not woozy enough to stop taking pics...

got to Leicester Square where movie premieres are held

on to Trocadero...

then to the Piccadilly Circus...

on our way to Trafalgar Square...

...saw this on the sidewalk

one last picture of a not-so-black cab

the turista and the local at Trafalgar Square

last stop: Buckingham Palace

then off to the tube we go!

bye London!

...on to the next adventure!

my last night in London

Just got back from my last London escapade with Paola and Sean. I have been very "tourist-y" these past couple of days and trying to document my last few days here in the UK (promise to post pictures soon), and I hate to admit it, but I think that I'm going to miss this place (but definitely not the weather). I realized that there's still so much I want to do (Breakfast at Tiffany's (the play) starring Anna Friel is opening on the day I'm going to leave!) and places I want to see, but I guess life is really like that. No matter how much people try to be satisfied, we still yearn for something more...but it doesn't mean that we can't be grateful for the opportunities and blessings that come our way. 

I am thankful for being lucky enough to have had this experience, and I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to come back here again, but there is one thing I do know: I will never forget all the life lessons I have learned this year. I am moving on, hopefully to a new and exciting place, and wishing for bigger and brighter things to come my way.
