Where has April  month gone?

Even if it´s 7 weeks ago i want to show you some pics from our trip to London.

Back  from a gorgeous, amazing, colourfull and springy visit to London. We had wonderfull warm weather the whole 4 days.

Spring London

We had great food, beer, watched Milk at the cinema, did some tourist visits, went for a ride on the London eye and got a wonderful evening view.

Most of the time we took this transport system. We could see much more instead of  beeing Underground.

Bus London

We did some window shopping. Saw great decorations and drank coffee, chai tea at starbucks, costa or nero.  There must be thousand cafés or more in lovely London.

Are you in need of a new dog generation?  Jeans dog, anyone?

Sundays are for food and art, when you visiting London.

We strolled over the old Spitalsfield Market and later we went to the Old Truman Brewery. Inside located the Sunday up Market. I think it´s even known as Brick Lane Market. It was colourful and we ate yummy delicious food.

Always worth a visit.

Great news!!!  As seen on Oxford or Regent Street. London will be the first european city with a Anthropologie Store.

Lucky Londoners.

Firts european Anthropologie Store

Opening will be this autumn. Worth another visit to London.
As you see and read we had a great time in the UK. As always.
