England – Back in London

We are in London, and welcomed with a good temperature, sun and blue sky, very nice!
London is a city that we know well, Alexis has already lived here ten years ago and Carol came to study here. we come back frequently to visit friends. We came to spend few days in the middle of our world tour at the end of June last year between Africa and Russia.
We stayed at our Anglo-Brazilian friend’s Karina, who came to Rio to get the microphone to married us. Karina is a chef in London, she has taken a few days off to welcome us and made us some delicious dishes!

We went to have traditional English breakfast, we love it, and we went to a park and of course for a beer in a pub. Karina invited us to see the exhibition of the singer David Bowie.

We also visited Matt, our French friend. We spent an evening in a pub, visited his new flat and went partying a little. Always good to see Matt again.

One night we went to have dinner in a Belgian restaurant with Andre and Robert, two Carol’s Brazilian friends from Rio, and then we went for a drink in Soho. Good food, good company, good evening.

With Robert and Andre

We went for lunch in an Indian restaurant to see again Bina, a English girl with Indian origin that we met in Vietnam, almost two years ago at the beginning of our trip. She was traveling three months in Asia with her husband Hiten. It’s nice to see again adventurers of the world in their home.

Us with Bina

We also visited Patricia, an Irish that we met during our tour in Africa with whom we spent one month tripping through six different countries. Patricia had even come to Rio for our wedding. We had very short time to see us each other because she had to finish her thesis in few days before going on holiday in Ireland, we went to her home for lunch and tea. We loved seeing her again, we were missing her energy and zest for life!

Patricia & Carol

During these 10 days we spent some time working in the organization of our future plans for our return to Brazil, but we still had time to go around and enjoy the city that we liked very much.

London

Alexis is now going to fly to France to see his family and friends, Carol is flying to north of Norway to spend 10 days with her mother, her sister and her two nephews.
Bye bye London!
