week 8- Londontown

Moved out of Sussex and into London with the beautiful bride to be Aunt Jackie; took me to dinner with her friends who happen to be getting married as well... and seriously made me wonder how many years I can waste around being single.. her friends have been dating for the last 12 years no joke! literally been dating since middle school and they are going to get married soon! Such a fairy tale story :]
anyhow as we were finishing up dinner, a magician stopped by to show us some tricks and really made my night! (sorry for bad pictures)

went into Chinatown to get some legit chinese food after 8 weeks of starvation and hunger and eating off of sandwiches... Oh did i mention i got boba???? Oh how i miss you so!


Covent Gardens: This guy is by far my favorite! what i realize in London is that Londoners really do know how to relax and chill; sip on coffee or tea and enjoy/ appreciate street performers and musicians play; im going to call them street artists because its part of the London culture and the Brits dont look down upon these people; its what makes London so lively
Ended my week 8 going to Harrods... Seriously kicks South Coast Plazas Butt and I would go the extent to declare that it kicks the Fashion Show Mall in Vegas... Harrods has been around for almost 200 years and for its age, this place has some of the nicest decorations and brands ive seen... makes American malls seem so pathetic and dull (not that I hate it) This place has memorials and Egyptian statues... Have you seen these before in department stores? But like most high end places, its really for looks and it seems that this place was sold to Qatar Holdings recently since its hard to maintain business

Cant believe its almost the end of August :[ but enjoying the fact that I got to meet different people from all walks of life -sz
