I miss London already and I haven't even left!



What a fabulous night! Brit, Hayles and I went to Pizza Organic (yes I had the egg pizza one last time) and then Brit and I left to go on the London Eye! I was SO excited to see London at nighttime, but unfortunately we were literally one minute past 8:00 and the guys wouldn’t let us on. Oh well … that just gives me an excuse to come back again. It’s actually the number one targeted terrorist threat at the moment, so that pretty much scared the living daylights out of me, and was the reason I still hadn’t been on. Maybe I’ll ride it when it moves off that list.

Other than that, Britty and I said our goodbyes to the beautiful Big Ben, Thames River, and Westminster Abby. Then, we were off to Trafalgar Square to see the huge Christmas tree which was actually not that “huge” or great. I don’t think the Brit’s actually understand the importance of the Christmas tree. Let’s just say that I’ll be driving down Christmas tree lane this weekend. We know how to do it right!

Our last stop of the night was Regent Street. All the lights were so festive and Britty and I sat in the Starbucks window sipping our Tea and watching all the shoppers go by. It was fantastic! I can’t believe I have to leave this city. I am so lucky to have called it my home for four months. Hopefully, I’ll be able to share it with more people in the near future. XOXO and I can’t wait to see and hear from you all very, very soon!
