london: part 4

i can't believe our last day is already here and practically gone! it's a little sad for this trip to be over, but also pretty exciting to finally get started on our next chapter. we'll be in st andrews tomorrow!

so for our last day, we took ivy to kensington gardens one last time to feed the ducks and swans, and watch all the dogs. i hope she never grows out of her sweetness towards animals and children. it's precious.

brady offered to watch ivy during her nap so kevin and i could wander around london alone! woohoo! we decided to go to fortnum & mason in picadilly circus. it was such a cool place and we had a great time. lunch, ice cream, shopping and chocolates. a fine afternoon, indeed :)
chocolate heaven! we ordered a tiny box filled with a dozen bite-sized chocolates. it cost an arm and a leg but i bet it'll be worth it :)

the cute boxes you can choose from/ tower of truffles!


the hall was decked with halloween treats.
and ice cream was had at the parlour (mint chocolate chip for me- shout out to syd!) thanks to kathryn's recommendation.
and on that sweet note, this trip and the london blogging series are officially over.
wish us well on our way to scotland!

Chaiss - woohoo for Mint Chocolate Chip - you know me well! I love your London pics. That is where my brother stayed during his semester abroad (in Chelsea). It's beautiful, your flat was beautiful, and you 3 certainly looked like locals - how fun! I hope you have settled in quickly in Scottland and started to relax. Pics please! Love you!
