And Traveling the World
Given my love of travel, I’ve scoured the UK capital for travel themed bars in London. In doing so, I’ve uncovered a number of great watering holes that transport guests to other worlds and underworlds from the convenience of our own metropolis. Read on to see what I’ve found.
The best views of London are evolving. When I moved here, the skyline was limited. The London Eye, Gherkin, and St Paul’s Cathedral were pretty much all that punctuated a low-lying architectural landscape.
But not long after I landed, a flurry of construction began that has changed the skyline irrevocably. From The Shard to the Cheese Grater, these new buildings not only have quirky names, but also great views.
They’re not the only places that offer sweeping panoramas, though, and today I bring you A Lady in London’s best views of London.
Chiswick is lovely. The camellias are pink with promise, and along the Thames the boat house doors are opening for rowing practice. Golden flowers grace the gardens around the neighborhood, and Chiswick shops, restaurants and museums are welcoming locals and visitors.
Is it just me, or has the weather been strange this winter? The east coast of the US is buried under snow, California is experiencing a drought, and London is having a relatively mild time of it. But even with above freezing temperatures in the UK, my inner San Franciscan struggles with winter. Which is why I’m excited that March is here and I’m seeing signs of spring in London.
