🍷 WSET I in Wines

We squeezed every last bit out of our final day in We squeezed every last bit out of our final day in London. The morning started inside the Tower of London, learning the history and admiring the Crown Jewels before drifting down the Thames by boat.

Later we ducked into The Grapes — the pub partly owned by Sir Ian McKellen — for a little LOTR nostalgia (checking out Gandolph the Grey's walking stick from the first Hobbit movie). After we found our way back to Borough Market to grab a few things to bring home.

Our final night wrapped up with dinner at Ottolenghi Spitalfields, a perfectly delicious way to say goodbye to London and so much better than our first dinner in London.

We averaged 20,000 steps each day and it didn't rain once during our visit, until we were on the plane. 🇬🇧

London delivered another sunny day, so we started London delivered another sunny day, so we started with brekkie at Farm Girl Café soaking up the warmth before heading into the Natural History Museum.

From there it turned into one of those classic London wandering days — Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey and Big Ben — while we confidently zipped around the city on the Tube and double deckers like seasoned pros.

A stop at the cheese bar (all you can eat cheese served on a conveyor belt) was a highlight, but the night belonged to my favourite opera, Phantom of the Opera. 🎭

Spring is springing everywhere in London. Spring is springing everywhere in London.
Day three of our London adventure started at the B Day three of our London adventure started at the British Museum staring down the Rosetta Stone and a whole lot of “how did this end up here?” moments.

London decided to turn on the heat (26°C!), which meant patio beers and a proper English pie at The Jack Horner pub.

More wandering and meanduring eventually landed us at Harrods for the experience. We stayed for coffee, and scones with jam/clotted cream. Following a short rest at our hotel, we ventured out again for beer/wine at the historic Jamaica Wine House (originally London’s first coffee house that also has ghosts) and then over to Vagabond Wines for self serve wine pours and snacks. Another extraordinary experience we need in Calgary!!
