WE'RE HERE!!!!!!
And it's FRICKIN' FREEZING! But all toes and fingers are still attached and feeling is still present... Just...
Flight was super long, Georgie almost fidgeted a hole in the seat and Sascha was doing some interesting pilates stretches in the aisle every 5 minutes, but all good :) we were sitting next to some lovely Kiwis, who we're meeting up with for Australia day.
Nearly didn't get into the country due to lack of documents on hand. But once we finally managed to persuade them that we weren't expatriate wannabes, they deemed to allow us into their COLD COLD city.
Were in bed by 7.45pm. Jet lag is a bitch. And slept through till 7.30am!
Today we went on an awesome FREE walking tour of the city, which we would show you photos of, if Sascha hadn't forgotten her camera connector. But we met some fantastic girls, from Australia, America and Holland. We randomly went to lunch with them, and were all chatting and laughing away for about an hour until we all realised tha we didn't even know each others names! When we finally got kicked out, two bottles of wine down, we went with some of them to the national art gallery, in which Sascha drooled over Van Gogh, Turner, and Manet. Georgie decided Van Gogh was pretty cool (Yay for sunflowers and the chair!)
We then walked home, and here we are... Eating meditteranean... and absolutely dead. Jet lag strikes again.
Tomorrow we plan to hit some markets, and maybe the Brittish museum before catching our connection to the Austrian SNOW FIELDS. Yay!!
Until our next internet hot spot, WE LOVE YOU ALL!
Love Sascha & Georgie

ReplyDeleteAnd now for a comment that actually is from Bob, rather than one that says it's from Bob, but is actually from Mum.
ReplyDeleteSounds like you two are having lots of fun, I saw those sunflowers when I was in London too, they are pretty. Btw george, I think you'll find it's spelt Monet, not Manet. Have fun girls, remember photos next time!
xoxo, Bob (and Sal I'm sure, if she were here)
I have been informed that there is an impressionist artist called Manet. Consider me humbled.
