London Part 1
It’s been awhile since we’ve done a mother-daughter trip and this was our first international one!
Here are some random photos and thoughts:
London was amazing. People were incredibly nice. Felt very safe.
The weather was sunny and warm.
We had heard the food in London was just ok….so we tried a variety….and a lot of it was delicious!
London is expensive.

Pic 2: Baby swans in Hyde Park
Pic 3: High tea
Pic 4: Borough Markets famous chocolate covered strawberries. The line was long but moved quickly….and worth it!
Pic 5: Borough market Paia
Pic 6: Giant pretzel
Pic 7: The Louis Vuitton Hotel pop up. You can’t stay there but you can tour it, purchase items and eat at the cafe. It’s free and worth seeing. Only open until June 21, 2026
Pic 8: iconic . Definitely a must visit if you are out shopping.
Pic 9: the amount of steps while shopping….not sightseeing, shopping😳
London Part 2 coming soon!
Does shopping and walking over 22,000 total steps count as an urban hike😂
