Long weekend in London

I arrived in the British capital in the late afternoon previous Thursday for an extended weekend break and went straight away to my London holiday residence. I was supposed to meet a buddy, however her air travel was planned for a later hour, thus I had some time for a shower and some relaxation opposite the TV set. When my date eventually showed up, she put her suitcases in her room and we did not waste one minute yet rushed outside to look at the city.London Pictures

Before my excursion I attempted to make a research about which might be the nicest pubs in London, but was really lost. There were so many remarks and so many testimonials by holiday-makers, that I made a decision we will visit the pubs near to our vacation home in London and try to stick to our instincts. We made a visit to the Last Drop Pub, since we were intrigued by its long history, then we had an ale at the Sandy Bell’s Pub in which we listened to some traditional songs.

Next we went to the Portobello area that was not near our serviced apartment in London but was a fascinating area as we were told. We stayed for 30 minutes ay the Malt and Hops Pub where the beer variety was overwhelming, then we went to the Sogo where we were offered the best beer for the night.

We were in a excellent mood and we met some new friends, who were eager to find out about our countries and home towns and we exchanged our emails to keep in touch once back at home. The time was flying and therefore Tom and me and we agreed to go back to our London lodging and get a good rest, as we had quite a long plan for the next few days.
