Trios from the V & A East Storehouse
What an amazing place. I’ll be writing about our visit in a separate post. If you have any photos of trios to share just copy my link and paste it into your post. I’ll be sure to check it out.
Walking Through Clissold Park and Along Church Street to Get Ice-cream
Yesterday was a more laid back day but at one point Azadeh, Sevin and I needed to get out for a walk. It turned out to be one of those typical London days ….to rain or not to rain but we chanced it anyway and headed for the park.
We took a shortcut through the park and made our way to Church Street. About half the stores were closed because it was a bank holiday but most of the coffee shops were opened.
The best part of the walk for Sevin was the stop at the gelato shop.
…and buying her favourite flavours….mango and strawberry.

Monster Monday from London
…back to using watercolours
This week Kevin decided to lay down some watercolour onto to paper and then looked for any shapes that emerged and from there created his monsters.

One Item from the Bucket List
…Andrea really wanted to try the long noodles at Xi’an Impression
On our long walking excursion yesterday we passed the Arsenal Stadium and found the restaurant that Andrea had on her list of places to visit while in London. Xi’an Impression is a very popular Vietnamese restaurant that many stadium goers enjoy. It is very small but we arrived at a good time and had no problem getting seated.
Andrea ordered the biang biang noodles and Brendan and I shared the smashed cucumber salad, pork filled dumplings and a Thai lemongrass chicken salad. Everything was delicious.
