I've realized that this blog makes life in London look like one long warm, sunny day. Nothing could be further from the truth, so we'll start today with a photo that's much more representative of what life is really like here. And now, on to some more warm, sunny day pictures. It was a 3-day weekend and of course we failed to plan any sort of getaway, so we decided to check out Richmond Park, which is perhaps the largest park in London, located maybe half an hour by tube from our flat. When we go to the train station, the announcer informed us that trains to Richmond are suspended this weekend. So we went to the Victoria and Albert Museum instead.
Then we played in the fountain in the V&A courtyard
The Wisteria is in bloom. Usually I'm horrified by Wisteria because it's invasive, but I think it might be a good city plant. Here, for instance, it's growing nicely, and since it's surrounded by blacktop, there's nowhere for it to invade to.
We went to a party where Josephine got her face painted
Pascale got a bubble sword for a party favor
The Three Musketeers, if they were armed with bubble swords and baby strollers.
A nice pic of Pascale
Horrifying play structures. Yes, that's Josephine tightrope walking 10 feet in the air.
More horrifying play structures.
