Day 2
Au hasard des rues
September 24, 2023 in England ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
Après notre petite visite de Camden nous décidons d'aller visiter le british museum mais finalement la visite tourne court au vu de la file d'attente interminable. Nous cherchons un endroit pour se poser et boire un coup et désespéré nous finissons dans un Nero café (si si Thomas c'est une chaîne !!)
Finalement comme nous avons rendez vous en fin de journée au Sky garden on décide de marcher le long de la Tamise pour se perdre dans les rues. Bonne initiative on tombe sur des petits quartiers supers sympas et la balade sur les quais est un vrai plaisir.
À 18h nous arrivons devant le building pour monter au Sky garden. Bon le temps ne nous permettra pas de voir le coucher de soleil mais la vue est quand même plutôt sympa.
Et enfin nous terminons notre journée par un bon steak au Flat Iron London Bridge faut pas déconner on l'aura mérité avec nos 30 000 pas !!! 🤪
Allez il est l'heure de regagner notre suite au savoye ! 🤭 Bonne nuit ! Souhaitez-nous bonne chance !!! 🤣Read more

Traveler Un peu plus longue. Mais après avoir marché pour de 20 km, on est tous tombé comme des masses et on était épuisé.

London Week #2
October 9 in England ⋅ ☁️ 16 °C
This week I tried to get out more to appreciate the city and surrounding areas. I visited Borough Market and had some diverse, amazing food! Although I saw it with my family a few weeks ago, I also went to Tower Bridge, quintessential London.Continue to appreciate the autumn: leaves changing color and chilly weather.

This last Friday, some friends of mine from the Cal Lu cohort and I went to Seven Sisters Cliffs. I had seen a lot of websites that suggested we go so I convinced the group! It was one of our best days of study abroad so far. The white cliffs were incredibly unique and it felt so peaceful to restart in nature after being in the city. We got some delicious crepes to end the day before hopping off train to train!Read more

Day 138
London
August 14, 2023 in England ⋅ ☁️ 21 °C
Restful couple of days in London for me while Jacques ventured up north. Didn’t take too many photos as I was too busy in relax mode 😜 Jacques came back to London for our last two nights in the UK. A few highlights from our short stay were:

📍 Spending quality time with Stef and Julia (Jacques’ cousins) and some sunny London weather ☀️

📍 Catching up with Brad, Rach & Brad’s parents. So nice to meet them!

📍 Produce shopping with Julia @ Borough Market. The nut man and the spice shop were so good. Amazing quality and variety!

📍 Trying Ethiopian food at Maltby Market. Incredible!

📍 Cooking with Julia for her friends from India. These guys were lovely!

📍 Day to myself walking around Borough Yards and Bermondsey street, tried a few different coffee shops, lentil soup and even found a pastel de nata shop 🥮

📍 Catching up with my friend Georgia who I used to work with at SFX and is now living in London. We went to Neal’s Yard which was a super cute courtyard

📍 Jacques caught up with an old cricket friend from Dandenong, Cam Forsyth as well as spending some extra time with Brad before we left

📍 Drinks in the sun with Jacques @ a pub on the river called The Angel, then a walk through Rotherhithe. Saw a cute pup that looked heaps like Winnie and talked to the owner for a while 🐶

📍 Walking through Shoreditch - this place was super hipster and had the coolest vintage shops, markets and little bars everywhere. Want to come back to this area!

📍 Shoreditch House & Pen Yen Restaurant - going to this members club with Julia and Stef, very cool concept , wish we had one in Melbourne! Funky Asian fusion restaurant and pool on the rooftop 🍸Read more

Day 46
London wander day
October 21 in England ⋅ ☁️ 12 °C
Wandered through London trying to find some old buildings, found a church that had parts remaining from Roman times so I would say we succeeded. Also found an underground German bar. Not an illegal bar, just in the basement of the old hop exchange.Read more

Borough Markets

Borough Markets where you can buy any fresh produce and multiple Takeaway stalls.
I had a Kate & Sidney pie (steak & kidney).
Was awesome.

Borough Market is a wholesale and retail market hall in Southwark, London, England. It is one of the largest and oldest food markets in London,[1][2] with a market on the site dating back to at least the 12th century. The present buildings were built in the 1850s, and today the market mainly sells specialty foods to the general public.Read more

Day 2
Borough Market and Dinner at Padella
November 15, 2023 in England ⋅ 🌙 50 °F
After we unpacked and settled in, we headed off to a nearby indoor food market. It was very impressive, which it should be since it has been running for about a thousand years (no exaggeration).

Russell decided that it was too cold even for him in shorts, so he headed back to get long pants at the hotel while I wandered around the market and put our names in at a restaurant that looked really good (and rated Michelin Bib Gourmand).

They had a cool way of queuing at this restaurant. At 4:30 they put out these signs with QR codes. Once you scanned them, they put you on the waiting list and started seating people at 5. We ended up getting seated around 5:10 and had 3 different delicious pasta dishes.

Then we were back in the hotel and asleep by 7 pm. We both got very little sleep on the plane, so we were hoping that if we got a regular night's sleep tonight, we could adjust to England time in one night.Read more
I'm impressed with the queuing set up! With those smiles, you are so enjoying London. [Virginia Quong]

Borough Market 👍
December 20, 2023 in England ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
Der Borough Market war unbeschreiblich. Die Markthallen riesig und sehr viele Menschen. Dort gab es frischen Fisch & Meeresfrüchte, Obst, Gemüse, Käse, Schinken, Bäcker, asiatische Garküchen und allerhand Süßes. Besonders viele Leute standen für "Humble Crumbe" an, eine Besonderheit, die es nur hier gibt. Sehr süß, aber lecker 😜Read more
