Friday, May 21st
Today, Steph and I strolled around Hyde Park, taking in all of the sights and even more so, soaking up the stunning weather. Nearly 80 degrees here-- can you imagine? After an amazing lunch at the Serpentine, which is built right on the river with the most gorgeous view, we laid in the park watching the culture around us. This really cool group of break dancers were in the center of the park, dancing and goofing around to awesome music. We enjoyed the free show as we relaxed and took in how gorgeous the flowers, trees and fountains were. Then we met up with Isa and wandered for hours, taking turns at whims and browsing shops all along the way. We danced around in Marc Jacobs, strutted around Oxford Street and finally found a Manchester United jersey after much searching. We were decidedly starving after this and returned to a favorite, "YoSushi"-- the sushi restaurant with the conveyor belt. It just gets better every time!
Since it is Isa's birthday, we decided it would be a big night out. A huge group of us wandered into the city and ran into a group of guys dismayed at the club situation. We befriended them and ended up spending the night at this gorgeous club called Cafe de Paris. Looked straight out of a movie, lit up with fairy lights and just the most romantic setting. Such a great night of dancing and chatting with the boys from Holland! It is so fascinating to meet people here and hear of all of their travels and experiences. What an amazing thing to make connections around the world!
