Luckily my flight was not cancelled and being delayed didn't make a return trip to the flat necessary, but it did make getting up early that morning a little pointless. However, I was able to make the most of the delay by sleeping in the airport and, since our flight was pretty empty, I was also able to squish myself in to two seats and sleep for a few more hours on the plane.
I guess I also have to blame Dad for the wonderful weekend I spent in London. Here are the highlights:
- Meeting Finley. My nephew is the most lovely little one month old boy I have ever met. I thoroughly enjoyed cuddling with him, taking pictures of him and just watching him get used to this strange world we live in.
- Sunday Lunch with the Family. One of the English traditions that I have always loved is that of Sunday lunch. A time to get together with friends and family, enjoy a large meal and basically do nothing all day Sunday. This Sunday lunch was the best one yet because not only was I able to spend it with my Sister, her boyfriend, my nephew and my Dad but we were also joined by my aunt, my uncle, my cousin, my cousin's husband, and my cousin's three lovely children. Delicious food, a good stroll around the Heath and an afternoon with family. There's no better way to spend a Sunday.
- Stomp. Saturday evening Dad and I treated ourselves to a night out. After a memorable meal at a small French restaurant called Mon Plaisir, we strolled over to the theatre to see Stomp. I have been wanting to see this production for a very long time and let me say, it was definitely worth the wait. It was superb! I even found myself tapping away on different items during my flight today; Although I don't think the other people found it as entertaining as I did.
