What a Lovely Life

Soooo yesterday was a pretty productive day to say the least! Waking up I knew that I wanted to go into Notting Hill and Oxford Circus to do some shopping, of course! Walking around Notting Hill was the most amazing experience, the area was the so picturesque with the colorful houses and small streets that zig zag around bends. It was someplace you could for sure relax and get some good shopping in! I ended up going to Portabelo Market that was filled with really amazing things to buy and eat. I got some super cool things to bring home with me as well as some tasty treats to eat while walking around. After Notting Hill I took a short tube ride over to Oxford Circus to do some more shopping, while Oxford Circus is a more intense shopping area it is still filled with amazing things to look at! Getting ready to head back home to the flat I was stopped by some loud music that echoed around the street, I looked around to see what it could be and saw about five people rush out into the intersection and start dancing! It wasn't but a minute later and more people stopped what they were doing and joined in, I was witnessing my first flash mob in the middle of London!! It was awesome to see with my actual eyes instead of see around the Internet and defiantly a highlight of the trip! With so many people crowding around it wasn't long before I couldn't see it anymore and decided to make my way down to the tube while everyone was being entertained it would me easier to get around! 

When Monica got home from work we quickly made our way out again to Primrose Hill! Not gonna lie guys out of everything I've done on this trip so far this has to be my favorite! And I know you guys are thinking... Really? And YES! REALLY! We packed a dinner we got from Whole Foods and quickly made our way to the enchanting town. Primrose is such an adorable area and so quite that it makes you forget you're so close to central London. Before coming on this trip I told myself that Primrose was must see for me because of this hill they have in the park. You see, if you climb this hill and get to the very top you can see all of London in front of you. And to be perfectly honest it's a moment that makes you take a breath in, I could literally feel how big the world is in that moment and that not everything is just in Oklahoma. It made me realize that no matter what, where ever I go, when I come back to this spot at the top of the hill in Primrose everything will still be how it was. Being with Monica only made it that much more special for me, she truly is an amazing person and a best friend any person could be blessed with! The whole night was perfect and I went to sleep that night with the biggest smile on my face and the biggest dream in my head! 

I don't want it to be almost time to come home, I'm still busy Chasing London.
