Last weekend was a whirlwind trip through London. We arrived early Saturday evening and headed straight to a friend's Christmas party; spent Sunday getting lost in Camden Market and then traversed the City, South Bank and Covent Garden only to find that the restaurant we had chosen for dinner wasn't actually open; fulfilled childhood dreams by taking the Harry Potter studio tour; caught the West End production of Singin' in the Rain (my all-time favorite film); had a hasty lunch this morning at a gastropub with my uncle before catching the Eurostar back to Paris. Whew. Thank God it only rained once.
By the time we returned to our Airbnb-rented apartment in Camberwell each night I had little energy to write. (And even though I brought my laptop with me I forgot my camera's USB cord so I couldn't upload any photos. Fail).
I am currently in the midst of preparations for the imminent arrival of my family, so for now here is a photoset, or teaser, if you will.
