London Stopover in February

Can you believe these pictures? Although a little late on the uptake, I thought you might like to share in the delight we had on our 4 day stopover in London in February. With nothing more in mind other than a little shopping, checking out some Raw and Vegetarian restaurants (more about that soon), seeing a West End show (Avenue Q - oh so so funny) and playing catch up with our London friends, we were pleasantly surprised with what Mother Nature decided to bestow on us late Sunday evening whilst we were enjoying a bevvie or two at Prince Albert Hotel in Notting Hill.

Yes this is the afternoon (Winter in London get's dark wayyy early)

Oxford Street the following morning (approx 10am). This is the quietest I have ever seen this popular shopping street. Some shops were closed all day as staff were unable to make it into work.

The boys trying to find a restaurant for our lunch in Notting Hill.

It was amazing how much of a grinding halt the whole country came to with the snow. Public transport was severely impacted (buses cancelled completely), and of course flights in and out were cancelled and delayed. PPP's mate who had come to visit us from Brighton for the day on Sunday wasn't able to leave our hotel for home til Tuesday morning....so much for our romantic couple of days in London together!!! Ha ha.

My blogger and fellow Aussie pal Casey was also impacted by the weather on her trip...we wanted to meet up for a herbal tea but both our schedules were crazy....especially with the snow! Check our her awesome blog here!
