Walking from Kings Road to the City

A half assed attempt at masking my current inability to type up a nice blog post by throwing in a stack of Instax shots I took on my cliché autumn walk through London. Enjoy or something!

It's grrrrrreat

Pretty s-trandy font, eh? (I'm so sorry)

Today I decided to take advantage of my proximity to all things old and amazing in London and went to Somerset House see Ai Weiwei's Circle of Animals. I can highly recommend it, it's a good excuse to take a stroll through the old City area (forever one of my favourite neighbourhoods) and the statues are really beautiful. Just try to go on an "off" day to prevent being surrounded by tourists and tourist children. Today it was pretty peaceful and quiet until two artsy looking Chinese guys took off all of their clothes and leaped across the fountain square while a third one took pictures. I think it may have been a protest action against Ai Weiwei's (ridiculous!) imprisonment? So kudos, guys. It was freezing, especially near those fountains. I would've just said "T-shirt and shorts max, that's all" (hahaha no I wouldn't, I would be hiding in the gift shop like the coward that I am).

So go! And while you're there, make sure to take a picture with your favourite zodiac animal for future grandkids and the like. Mine is, obviously...

It's almost that time of year again

In 36 hours I'll be on the Eurostar to London. I always end up having to leave the Netherlands right in the middle of cherry blossom season...

Ow rvwaa, trees! I wish I had more time to roll around in your petals
