#1 heatwave

** i am gifting myself a free souvenir from my short sojourn here in londres with this blog.  lets hope it lasts. cheers. x 

londontown experienced a supposedly rare "heatwave" this past weekend.  as such, my California soul felt right at home in the 81 degree weather.  londoners, on the other hand, felt the need to celebrate this magnificent sighting of the sun.  parks were poppin during the day, the streets were teeming at night.  uk folk sure are keen on fully appreciating good weather.  cali kids are so spoiled. 

took the locals' advice to take full advantage of this rare but wondrous weather.
