What a treat!

I spent last week in Paris for work and randomly Chris and Jess were there as well! So, I had wonderful company for dinner Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. We ate dinner in the Latin Quarter the first two nights and the third we ate at a brasserie by the Opera (which is close to where I work).


Stonehenge

This past weekend Jess, Margaret, Wei and I decided to take a risk and drive on the wrong side of the road to see none other than STONEHENGE!!! Steering from the passenger seat and driving on the wrong side of the road was a bit strange but we made it there and back without any problems! Oh and I'd like to mention that getting older has it's perks - because I'm now 27 they gave us a MERCEDES BENZ to drive!!! So yeah, we did Stonehenge in style!



From Stonehenge we drove to Avebury - before we got there we made a few pit stops: saw some sheep, climbed up a big hill...









Best Market EVER!

Went to Camden Market last weekend - BEST MARKET EVER!!! Sooo many cool stalls. Soooo much food! Tons of antiques. If you're ever in London I would definitely check it out!

Birthday Weekend

Well, it wasn't Medieval Times or the House of Blues gosple brunch but it was in London! Margaret, Arturo and I went to the "it" club of the moment Modiva (http://www.movida-club.com/).



Around 4am we left the club and took a rickshaw to China town for some late night grub

At the restaurant we witnessed a scuffle between our server and some customers. Our server actually hit a girl hence the face!
Sunday Margaret went with me to check out Kensington Palace, the V&A museum and Harrods (which by the way is the most expensive place on the planet! I found an umbrella that was being sold there for 179 pounds! YES POUNDS! that's about $350 which is CRAZY!).
