Harrods and Flamingos with Koan

Heh. I met Koan, I met Koan! In person! Heh.
Koan met us outside of Harrods and graciously wandered around with the amazed Americans and helped us “herd the cats” that are our children. She also made the children’s day by purchasing truffles for them.
After Harrods we went back to the Hotel Chocolat for a couple of gift items we had decided to purchase and bring home for friends and family. And then, we found the Kensington Roof Gardens and THE FLAMINGOS! It was sort of cool to take Koan somewhere that she didn’t know existed in her homeland. 
It was a fun little half-day and now we’re working on packing things up and restoring the flat to its former condition.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who has to ‘herd cats.’ Pity I can’t do my herding outside Harrods too.
Cheers
Ah, if it comes to that, I met all of *you*!
And your words haven’t done justice to how charming and enchanting you all are.
It might amuse you to know that I got on the wrong tube train once I’d left you – see, even us locals do it! (Maybe not as many times in one week as some visitors, but there you are…!)
hahaha Koan got on the wrong train, hehe. I love that. You caught it right away, didn’t you? We always knew like as soon as we sat down lol.
It really was great fun to meet you in person.
I am so jealous! You look like you are having a wonderful visit (and the weather doesn’t look all that dreary in some of the photos — isn’t it glorious when the sun finally pokes its way out over there?)
