Had made plans for a walk around tour of Central London but
rains played spoil sport. However we ventured out on the overcast day with our
umbrellas with a fond hope that the drizzle would stop. But apparently the rain
Gods loved us so much they accompanied us all day through our walk and showed
us what is meant by miserable English weather!
We took the almost empty Metro to Covent Garden and our
daughter walked us through the hallowed structures of London School of
Economics where she had studied. Then we walked through the Covent Garden
market and to a Japanese restaurant ‘Wagamama’ for lunch. I feasted on Wagamama
Ramen
special noodle soup with lots of meat and veggies. Having stuffed
ourselves with the delicious food, off we
went again in the drizzle to the
market and then on to Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus. We were
determined not to let the rains spoil anything for us and we succeeded partly
though could not take many pictures for fear of getting the camera wet. However
took a few with the phonecam and decided to repeat the walk again on a brighter
day. Took the metro back and spent the evening browsing in the Harrow town
centre.
Returned home to the warmth of our friend measured in liquid
gold – the Black Dog, one of the finest scotch
available in India, that I had
brought all the way to London. The Black Dog sure helped me relax at leisure and
warmed up my body that was cold after a walk in the cold drizzly London
weather. Thank you
Black Dog for being there when needed most!
Black Dog is celebrating 130 years of its existence in being part of celebrations of living life in style
