Touchdown in Londontown

< The one and only... Harrods! >

As you may have guessed after reading Trip packing, I was recently on an amazing trip with a few stops in Europe!  The first stop was London, which meant a week full of culture, sightseeing, rain, walking all over that wonderful town, and consuming so much delicious food with my best friend.  Although I am a city girl at heart, I really only love visiting the big cities- and let me tell you, London is one city I will love to visit again and again!  In fact, this really was the third time I have walked the streets of London- but because my friend is living over there, this time I had a very personal look at the "inside" of London- sights and museums I had never visited before made me feel like I was becoming a true Londoner (thank you, friend!!).  Now, I think its time to bring that lovely practice of afternoon tea to my neck of the woods.  That's sorted, cheers!

P.S.- Stay tuned later this week for more pictures and outfit details from my trip!
