Today was a lazy morning because Samantha slept in. Alex and I played cards and did some laundry and dishes. Once Samantha woke up we got ready and went to the park. Poor Samantha made a bad choice and decided to wear flip flops while riding her scooter to the park....which we have said many times not to do. I think she learned her lesson because she fell off her scooter courtesy of her bad shoes. Thankfully, it wasn't a bad fall and resulted in only a couple of scratches. After lunch we had some chill time (Samantha watching Once Upon A Time and Alex and I watching Home). I even snuck in a 30 minute power nap! We left a little before 3 to take the tube to Piccadilly Circus to meet up with Andy. He had a meeting up there so we decided to enjoy the afternoon. The weather was amazing again and we strolled around Covent Garden and ate at the Shake Shack. Once again, let me state how expensive it is here!! 4 hamburgers, 1 lemonade, 1 milkshake = $32 pounds which translates to about $50. This is why we grocery shop and eat in the flat most of the time!!! More healthy too, I suppose.
I've been wanting a new fragrance so that when I get home and wear it I will be reminded of my time in London. I was planning on just getting some Nivea body spray from Boots or something, but Andy knows how much I adore Orla Kiely, so he took me to the shop. The clothes, while beautiful, were WAY too expensive for me, but they had a fragrance that I really liked, so I got that. I'm quite picky about perfume so I was surprised I liked it right away. It was more than Nivea, but not hideous. At least that's how I justify it to myself! After a few more shops, including the comic book store, we headed home.
A few showers later everyone is clean, feeling better, and relaxing before bed.
