An American in Europe

London grows on you!

Click “read more” to see some more pictures of London, including St. Paul’s, Shakespeare’s Globe Theater and the Millennium Bridge.

My favorite time to tourist around is Sunday after church. (Yes, I just turned tourist into a verb.)

Last Sunday, Oct. 31, or Halloween, I headed to the Tate Modern after church. I wanted to check out the Robert Frank photography exhibit.

I took a double-decker to St. Paul’s Cathedral, and then walked across the Millennium Bridge to the Tate.

I love these little iron animals all over the gates?

After I was done touring around the Tate, (yes, I spent four hours at an art museum!) I left for a dinner party at Kris’ and Mark’s. (They did a superb job cooking Filipino food! Yum!)

But, before I got there, I took some pictures of the sunset from the South Bank.

This photo is from election night. Here’s the outfit I wore that night and onto the next morning at work the next day! (And I bought the shoes for the occasion at Marks & Spencer’s and hose at Selfridges – I feel like such a Londoner! haha) ;) Derek, whaddya think? Am I authentic yet?
