Harrods.

A Pretty Street on the South Bank. Oh, how I love London!

Once Jared got home from work, we decided to take the Tube to South Kensington and walk up to Knightsbridge and go to Harrod's. I just love Harrod's and have to go every time I am in London. We have our share of high end shopping and designer department stores in Dubai, so that really doesn't excite me. However, the Food Halls at Harrod's is the real reason for going... I love love love the food halls...

Anywhere with custom Whoopie Pies has a place in my heart..

Yum, nothing like cured ox tongue with jelly.

PORK!!!

Then after we had sufficiently oogled the food halls, we decided to walk back toward Piccadilly for dinner. We headed up Brompton Road toward Hyde Park Corner and continued on along Green Park down Piccadilly. I think Jared's favorite part of London was all the walking we did. We were both just relishing being in an actual walkable city again, and also the beautiful weather (absolutely perfect weather, 75-80 and sunny, for our whole time in London. Who says London has bad weather?). We passed the beautiful Ritz Carlton (our favorite hotel, which, is usually a bit outside our price-range unless we get a free stay as we did in Doha), and then decided to have dinner at Busada Eathai. Busaba Eathai is a delicious (as we found out) Thai restaurant that my Aunt and Uncle used to love it. And we were not disappointed as we split spring rolls, a beef curry, and pad thai for dinner. Yum. Another wonderful day in London.
