Today I got to spend all day with the wonderful Tori Biondo. She's studying abroad in Rome but came to London for the weekend to visit a family friend.

We met up at St. Paul's Cathedral and then went to Starbucks for a pumpkin spice latte (yes). Then we walked across the river and the bridge brought us to where the Globe Theatre is. We then walked across the river towards Festival Pier. Remember that amazing ravioli I had the first week I was here? Well we went to that food fair and had pasta from that station and it was yummy.

After lunch we walked towards Westminster Bridge but it was insanely crowded so we got in a cab and went to SoHo.  There we went to Kettner's -- a champagne bar -- and all had a glass of champagne. We stayed there and chatted. The place was what you would consider "posh" -- so it was very pretty. From there we went to another restaurant, Pix. Here we had... more champagne... and small plates of food. Tori and her friend were off to see a musical so we parted ways at the tube station and now I am home and preparing to write some essays before a big day tomorrow!

Pictures of my day are below.
