Snow and Prague

Here is Megan at the Opera at Covent Garden. We saw Salome, well part of it, we couldn't see the stage very well...



It snowed! Twice! 1st on Easter Sunday the a couple of weeks later really heavily!

Here is us on Clapham Common going for a walk in the snow. That's where we live now if you didn't know already.



Here is the view from our bedroom of the heavy snow.




Last week we went to Prague for a few days. It was very beautiful, but very touristy.
















Lots of beer, yum!

Barcelona and Paris

Here are some photos from our trip away with Ilse...



Delicious, thick hot chocolate in a little cafe downstairs from our apartment.



Barcelona by night.




We stayed in an apartment in the gothic quarter. It was very beautiful. This is the view from our little balcony.




Meat at La Boqueria market.





We went to an FC Barcelona game. They played Real Murcia and won. It was sooooo cold!







In a cafe with our books and beers...



Sagrada Familia.



Ilse and I and a weird guy at Sagrada Familia.



The view from Park Guell.



The birthday boy got some sun for his breakfast!





A sculpture at the beach.



Our last night eating tapas in Barcelona.



Our hotel room in Paris.




Ilse and 139 000 bottles of champagne at the Pommery house in Reims, yum!




B and our tasting glasses of champagne.





B eating steak tartare in Paris. He said it was good and that he'd like to eat it again. Crazy!

So now we're back in London. We've moved into my cousin's room while they are away for a couple of months and are both looking very hard for jobs. Fingers crossed they turn up soon!

The London Scene

Hello!

We have been very bad at this blog since we came to London. But we didn't think you'd really be interested in hearing about us making our way through Dave and Gil's DVD collection, or shopping at Tescos. But I could be wrong...



We have been pretty much relaxing school holiday style, which is good, but happily we are off again on Tuesday to Barcelona and Paris for more adventures.

But I thought I would post a few photos of some things we have done-




We have gone for a couple of walks through Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens. They had a Christmas fair on with a ferris wheel. It looks like its going to roll down the hill!




More in Hyde Park.



This is Holland Park in Kensington not far from where we are staying. Very pretty.



We spent Christmas day with Jacinta and Toni. It was lovely, we played Buzz on the Playstation (a quiz game) and Brendan won of course.



Here is Brendan ice skating gracefully in the Kew Gardens. It was a lovely setting, but the ice was very slippery and wet cos it wasn't very cold.



Which made it difficult for me to let go of the wall. Oh well maybe next time...

Anyway, I must get my suitcase packed again, so I hope you're all well and having a Happy New Year!
