Heaven 🏳️‍🌈🪩🍻
12 augustus 2023, Engeland ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C
Esta noche, no demasiado tarde y tras calentar motores en casa 🍻 vamos a un LGBT+ super night club venue cerquita de Trafalgar Square 🪩

Lo pasamos genial en ambas plantas con música diferente y con show drag incluido. Al final nos acabamos quedando hasta casi el amanecer y volviendo, ahora sí que sí, amanece mientras nos hacemos unas fotos en el Big Ben! 📸 Porque esto sí que es alucinante: ver la zona del Big Ben y la Abadía de Westminster tan vacía 🤩 lucky us!Meer informatie

Dag 4
National Gallery
7 september 2019, Engeland ⋅ ⛅ 15 °C
After the National Portrait Gallery we headed to the National Gallery, located just around the corner, to check out some of their collections - it is a huge building which contains many artworks. We decided to head for the impressionist and post-impressionist area, our favourite periods and styles. There was a wonderful collection of works from artists such as Cezanne, Renoir, Pissarro, Matisse, Picasso, Van Gogh, Degas, Monet, Manet, Gaugin, Toulouse-Lautrec, and also quite a few from the BritsTurners and Constable. We even came across an Arthur Streeton and a Gustav Klimt.Meer informatie

Dag 7
Foood
8 maart 2019, Engeland ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C
Ich habe extra Essen mit drei ‚o‘ geschrieben, weil wir quasi dreimal gegessen haben.
Das erste war bei unserem Spaziergang die Themse entlang, wo uns ein Kinder Bueno Eis geschenkt wurde, weil die heute in England rausgekommen sind.
Das zweite war bei Wagamamas ein echt großes Curry.
Das dritte war kurz danach, auf einem kleinen Food Market, eine italienische Spezialität mit Pistazien.
Alles drei sehr lecker, aber unter anderem weil ich gerade schon wieder Flapjacks gegessen habe, auch echt sättigend - na ja... das ist schön gesagt für ich platze gleich!
Aber die Kalorien lohnen sich!Meer informatie

Zu guter Letzt besuchten wir die Tower Bridge inkl. Walk auf Glasboden über der Themse und Besichtigung des ehemaligen Maschinenraums mit beeindruckenden Dampfmaschinen.
Abendbrot gab es in einem Pub mit "deutscher" Küche, wo wir unseren kulinarischen Horizont erweiterten. Oder hat schon mal jemand von Euch Rote Beete roh gegessen?Meer informatie

Wir haben noch Zeit bis 19:30 Uhr
13 juni 2018, Engeland ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
Um ca. 18:30 Uhr wollten wir unsere Karten für das Musical abholen, also hatten wir noch ca. 2 Stunden Zeit. Wir sind einen kleinen Umweg zur Themse gegangen um uns noch Cleopatra's Needle genauer anzusehen. Zur Themse ging es durch diese Gasse mit der wunderschönen Verbindungsbrücke, genau neben einem Bahnhof. Hier sind wir auch auf den Imbiss ‘‘Herman ze German‘‘ gestoßen, den wir bereits von Galileo kennen. Hier gibt es deutsche Würste. Currywurst, Bratwurst und Co.Meer informatie

London day 13 Sat 5 May 2018
5 mei 2018, Engeland ⋅ ☀️ 19 °C
Late breakfast and got away just after 10am. Underground to Piccadilly Circus then visited the National Art Gallery for a few hours. Then looked for a pub for lunch and ended back at the Ship and Shovel down the lane from Northumberland Ave down from Sherlock Holmes Hotel. Back to Acton Town Hotel to change for the City London and West London Hash clubs Spring Fling ferry Cruise. The ferry “Royal” took us upstream to the Putney Pier past the site of an old coal driven power station being stripped out for redevelopment. There was a band which was too loud providing music for dancing and a meal provided. Back at Action Town Hotel around 11.45pm.Meer informatie

Arrived in Jolly Ol'
7 oktober 2017, Engeland ⋅ ⛅ 16 °C
Made it! Pretty easy overall - some of us slept, others not so much 😊. I binged out on “the Good Fight” which made time go quickly.

Great 2 bedroom apt on Trafalgar Square!! Upstairs/downstairs even!!

Hard to force ourselves up after deep naps but have to to get into this time zone.

Now off for a bit of exploring and The Coal Hole Pub - R’s fav! and maybe even the oldest wine bar stop @ Gordon’s Wine Bar.
OHHH THESE PUBS! so much fun with these two!!Meer informatie

First evening adventures
8 oktober 2017, Engeland ⋅ 🌙 9 °C
Short "feet up" after a big 'walk about' day and off to Gordon’s Wine bar only to find it pretty hectic (albeit way cool as we were down in deep cellars and could have come up with food and wine from there to terrace). Tried our infamous sweet tapas bar only to find they had closed their kitchen for Sunday eve!

Finally found a Covent Garden Brasserie called Palm Court which was actually quite lovely! Great meal and home to apartment at 11 for “phone work” LOL!

Another great sleep for all for sure!!Meer informatie

Awhh sweet Abbey!
9 oktober 2017, Engeland ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
Up at 8:30!! We’re recovering well! Oatmeal brekky and we’re off to Westminster Abbey - short hop away. Spent a divine 2 1/2 hrs there then caught a Black cab to Portobello Road for lunch (The Duke of Wellington) and poking about - and of course a pic of 280 Portobello Road - check out (next footprint) my hilarious friend who said nothing, popped into my photo and strolled off!
Caught the tube back for Britt’s first time on the underground. Bevin sez “I never run for trains” and promptly hopped onto the next one leaving Mike, Britt and Rich back on the platform! So funny!!! still laughing! Hopped off, waited and then grabbed the next train, the one they were on.
Quick 1/2 pints etc at The Harp near us, a freshening up and off to our first Theater production!! Book of Mormon!Meer informatie
