there are lots of lovely places in london, if you know where to look.
late january, sat on the bank of the Thames around the hammersmith area at 3am. cuddling up to the boy i adore. so peaceful and serene, the moonlight and lights from hammersmith reflecting on the water and us hidden away from everyone (although the concrete wall did make our bottoms chilly). probably all the better because we had just made up after a bit of a fight about his girlfriend ;)

hmm. watching the sunrise from the back of a tall building (my halls) in paddington, the sky went all pink and beautiful. made me wish i had had some sleep first.

sneaking across kensington gardens late at night to get back to said halls, after they had closed, so dark and the sky was all lit up with lights from london, it looked like something out of a goth movie with the black trees against the orange sky and it was cool.

wow, london is cool.


outside of london, whitstable beach at ANY time - but mostly after i had been working at a pub on the beach this new years, and we bar staff came out to see the new year in and fireworks went off all along the coast in kent and in essex at midnight, and it was so clear you could see every one - all there was was cheering from inside and us with our oversized drinks. then i got a text from someone special who was in france so i got to watch it all with a smile on my face. :)
