London Part II

Picking up where I last left off, we made our way out to the sprawling and lush greenery that is Hyde Park. We found a nice spot next to a big lake, complete with paddle boats, swans, and Canada Geese! We spent the afternoon just lazing about, soaking up the sun and each others company. Fast forward 4 hours to high tea time. Walking along the streets of West End London, we stumble through the doors of a nice Italian restaurant, where we continue to chat, sip cheap wine, and gobble up yummy fettucini alfredo.

I'm stuffed and worn out, so we hop on the underground making our way Eastwards towards Stepney Green station, and Lara's Nan's flat (where I'll be slumbering for the next few days). Nan is classically British, and very sweet. The first words to pass her lips after our brief hello's, is "would you like a cup of tea?" I'm shown to our room, and prooceed to pass out soon after that, happy to be reunited with my gal.

Day 2 begins much how day 1 ended... with a cup of tea, and a big English breakfast courtesy of Nan.
