lina in europe part 3: morning, london, & tate

 nicola's kitchen was always so sunny & bright in the mornings. made me happy. she also had the cutest plates & bowls! look at that moomin one :) & i'm pretty sure that is a golden blowfish!

 there is nicola looking all cute in her bird dress & drinking that raspberry cranberry juice!
 one of the first things i saw when i arrived at her house was the wonderful welcoming sign that nicola made for me! i really loved it.
 mmm breakfast!

 we hopped on the train for basically all of our traveling through england!
 my first sights of england were quite lovely. the air was sharp & crisp : )





 the tate had lovely birch trees outside. i loved them. they reminded me of a white forest. birch trees are one of my favorite trees. & look at us, all ready to go exploring & on adventures : )
 we grabbed lunch at eat. & i loved the simplicity of it all.



 shopping was fun at covent garden. there was a band playing one of my favorite songs - pachelbel's cannon.

 lastly, i thought this was a cute window display : )

  4. The more you tell about your trip, the more I'm convinced I must travel!

    I love birch trees too, how all the knobbly bits turn silvery.

    You and Nicola look so cute in that photo together.
