Day one in London!, happy birthday to me!,,

We all made it London safe and sound...Maureen arrived about three hours late...we got to nap a little more in the airport while we waited...after a quick stop at the hotel to drop off our bags off we went to Covent Gardens...walked a bit and stopped for a bottle of wine and some apps..there was live entertainment and lots of  snacks....First a four piece sting group and then an opera singer...

Back to the hotel with about 30 minutes to get ready for dinner.  We headed over to Fiona's to meet my friend Melissa...great bday dinner...grilled avacados..prawns and a fig salad app..dinner was fish cakes,,,lamb,,,scallops...chicken Kiev and steak...and fabulous desserts..all of our favorites was the sticky toffee pudding!  Fiona even offered us an after dinner drink which we all took advantage of..it made for a great night if sleep....

Today we are off to a bus tour..afternoon tea and the London eye!  See you tomorrow morning!
