Back From Blighty.

A bunch of crappy photos taken today with the Iphone. I bought these fancy lollipops at Selfridges in London...one for Oli and one for me. Or so I thought. I can't believe I thought I could pull a fast one on Elke. That'll learn me. Oli hardly made a dent in his before he handed it back: ''too sweet mama''. And Elke? Polished that puppy right off (with a little help from yours truly. Of course).

London was fantastic. Four glorious days (albeit in not so glorious weather) spent doing anything I wanted. Whenever I wanted. One of the highlights of the trip had to be the Miro exhibition at the Tate. Nat and I could've quite happily bunkered down in there all day. And because of the crappy weather, we very almost did! I did a bit lot of shopping, drinking, eating, sleeping. I had my first experience in a London pub without kids which was really good fun. And I didn't have to visit the Natural History Museum for the first time in a looong time. But all good things must come to an end. And I was kinda missing those chickens back in Munich. Not surprisingly, Dave had a blast with them and while I was gone, not only had he rearranged the house, but he'd bought some new plants, a rug and had even taught Oli how to play Chess! Apparently it was so much fun I'm allowed to fly solo again anytime I want. Hmm, I'm thinking Copenhagen with mum in October...

And please excuse the lack of photos. (We snapped the photo below walking back from the Tate) I was having so much fun, I kept forgetting to pull my camera out. Caught in the moment without actually catching the moment. Next time Gadget. Next time.
