| At Holland Park |
The weather this weekend in London was absolutely lovely! With bright sunny skies and a high of 68F (20C), it was a great weekend to be outside. And that's just what Brandon and I did. We ventured out to the west side of London to the Notting Hill area. We explored the charming Holland Park, which has a giant chess board, Japanese garden and Ice Cream shoppe. We even packed a picnic lunch and enjoyed lunch on a park bench.

Following our jaunt through the park we stumbled across an American Food Store. They had all the items we've been craving this whole year, that you cannot find in the UK. Items such as: Chex Mix, Velveeta cheese, Kraft mac and cheese, and Ranch dressing. So we walked out with a nice variety of food to remind us of home!
We also had a special surprise earlier this week. My friend, Megan, whom I know from college, and her husband Chad visited London this week and we got to have dinner with them one night, before they headed off to Paris! As you can see, it was quite a bit cooler that evening (my hair being crazy in the wind), but here are Megan and I in Trafalgar Square. I hope they had a great trip and it was so lovely to see them.

Wishing you all a lovely spring!
