Timing is key and thankfully we had it last night! Shannon took me to the London Eye last night and it was breath taking! However, our fabulous trip almost didn’t happen! Shannon reserved tickets for the last tour at 830. But, before we could go we met up with a few friends for a few drinks. A lovely time at this quaint pub called The Castle, what is not to love haha. Well between the 2 of us, we agreed that there would be plenty of time between one more drink and the tube ride/walk/tickets and boarding of the eye … how nearly wrong we were. We hop on the tube, arrive in the general vicinity at 819 yes that is right, 819!!! We run across Westminster Bridge (in heels thank you very much), pop into the loo (our children are doomed to have the tiniest bladders in history) and one final run to pick up our tickets. As we arrive at the doors, slightly out of breath they begin closing the doors. Luckily, they were so wonderful and allowed us to pop in and grab out tickets. We were the last people to board for the night and the last people to get off … TIMING IS KEY!! We had an amazing ride and overlooked London at night … there is nothing like the city at night! It charmed me as a child and years later I am just as smitten! A perfect night , with the perfect man! What more could this girl ask for?! (Well, other than a better mile time for the future dash to the ticket line!) Happy (Early) Thanksgiving … so much to be thankful for this year!
Cheers,
Kate
