'Ol London Town


"Don't go to London" they said, "it's so gloomy, rainy and depressing"
Yep sure looks like it!! So far.. we have been pretty lucky with the weather. We've had plenty of blue skies and sunshine with only a few grey days...

In our first week Bonnie and Andy introduced us to the joys of the English BYO BBQ to the park... as you can see Josh completely mastered it!

Beers in the park is bliss after a long Canadian winter..


This is our new little home. We have taken on the challenge of the studio apartment. But as the following photos will show.. we think it's going to be worth it.
Our studio
So any guests visiting.. that couch there is your bed (it folds out). Hmmm.. cosy!!

The view from our window

Our street...

Our park gate..

Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens - now our backyard...



Our new spot to eat dinner or have a few drinks in the sunshine in the evening..



Still just in our backyard...

Josh's Birthday
Started off with breakfast, then a walk to Notting Hill and the Portobello Rd markets.

Then it was off the the park to join some friends for a friendly game of rounders!!


Josh was star pitcher for the day.. It was a fabulous day.

Just had to record Josh woo-ing our hosts again.. Here he is cooking for Rich, the guy we stayed with for week 2. He's becoming quite the impressive chef.
