I haven’t seen my eldest cousin Amy in probably 25 years, since the 2nd to last time I was in Panama visiting family. Her, her husband, and their daughter moved from Panama to the UK about 20 years ago. I was planning on taking the 2 hour train up to see them in Birmingham but unfortunately the rail workers announced earlier this week that they were going to go on strike on Saturday.
I’ve only heard of afternoon tea through tv shows and hours of Great British Bake Off. Really wanted the opportunity to go all out and have some of the best scones, pastries, and tea London could offer.
I’m struggling with how I want to write this post because I don’t want to spoil the experience for those who plan on going to the Harry Potter Studio Tour but in short: ERMERGERHD IT WAS AMAZING!!!
We were a bit knackered from traveling yesterday but I was chuffed that we finally made it to London. We left the flat in the morning and BLIMEY it was nippy.
Only been here a day and I’m already talking like a local!
I started putting together this trip idea back in February as Joanna’s work prefers to get a 6 month notice for PTO as she works with patients. In July, I had the realization that since we were spending time in France, we should make reservation at a Michelin star restaurant.
