A little nice museum in the UCL university . Free entry . A wide collection of antiques from Egypt and Sudan with some nice masterpieces . It was great . Never been there !
There are two sarcophagies all decorated . And amazing portraits . The tube station is Goodge Street station . This time I do not have many museums to suggest and discover because we mainly walked . I am so sad we missed Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick at the savoy theatre but I suppose it was sold out .
We had fun a very hidden gem . Not to spread the news too much but anyway my blog is not that famous . We went with friends to panella and Italian great place with local food . A lot of veggies . Informal and very very good with prices totally great for London . We arrived with the 328 – stop second avenue but it’s also reachable with the 52 that stops close by the portoguese area of London . In fact we had those wonderful patel de nata freshly made in this patisserie called Lisboa patisserie. The area of panella is popular but there is a canal and it’s a nice walk .
Trellick tower was there . An example of brutalist architecture made by erno goldfinger . The other town building is the Balfron tower .

interesting article about a tower we have been visiting on Saturday and that was totally new to me .
Forget the sky garden where we could never take good pictures . With reflections on the windows and too many people and dirty windows . No way ! Horizon 22 is still free , higher that sky garden and yes , there is no bar but who cares ? Better view , better photos .
Secondo me lo sky garden ha i giorni contati .. questo molto più bello .
And about the Disney 100th exhibition at the Excel .. what can we say ? Cool . Nice . But I expected more . Nice but not unforgettable . I think it is not worth . Considering that I did something wrong with the oyster and I paid 5,30 for .. what ? No idea ! I still can ‘t figure it out .
The sad story is that Jeannette is here and I cannot see her . Probably if I had known it before …
After some panic because we could not find anyone we boarded . Nice salmon pate and soup so far . And nice view but we are not close to the windows so it’s hard to take photos I should climb up in the terrace . Actually we did it , after dinner . it’s raining also so it is not very easy to see outside . Nice singer anyway !! Later , when everybody didn’t like the lemon cake , we climbed up to the roof and had a wonderful view even under the rain .
Directions with get your guide are not easy , just simply go to the pier and wait for the ladies .
I did a lot of movies and photos !
Walking around for the decorations is amazing . Especially bond street and convent gardens with the new decorations . But also fortnum and mason is always top . Have a look at the photos , they are all there . And idea for coffee is redemption roasters in jermyn street . It is very nice and cosy with nice tables outside in the summertime
It was rainy but we dared to go anyway . I think that in spring time should be amazing . My photos are here . Click to see them all . It is very nice . Then we had a quick lunch at pret in kings road and then I had the silly idea about going to ole and steene. Or steel . Anyway they have an hr that needs advices when hiring . The girl forgot to give me the receipt , she charged me for an espresso and a macchiato . She doesn’t know the meaning of espresso macchiato . She threw away my order so no one was making my stuff and she didn’t apologies. All in all considering that she left me right away and I had to call her back for the receipt .. I guess she was maybe not stupid but very clever to charge more . And now the big adventure . Will I have my money back on my card ??? Surprise . Follow me for more news .
Coming back to the gardens .. I loved many types of plants that I would love to see in my garden . The bus to get there is 170
Crete was not lucky at 100 for the weather but we managed to visit the big towns where it was raining so we had fun. We rented a car and first went to HERAKLION and to see the Cnossos palace. It was hot….I really like Ancient Greece history . Then we walked around the town center that is nice. It has a lot of Venetian influences especially the city hall building and the fountain . And there is a nice fortress by the sea.
CHANIA is better. I really enjoyed this town. A mix between Venice inheritance and turkey. Nice houses and places, walking around for the houses is so peaceful. RETHYMNO that every guide describe like a small paradise…well I was not impressed.
But it has to be seen. It’s full of fortresses.
Then finally the sun came back and we drove searching for beautiful beaches. Not to be stuck close to the hotel.
KALYVES beach was sooo nice and believe it or not the sunbeams and umbrellas were free for the cafe customers….
What a sea….
In our hotel the beach was long and beautiful but not like in other places .
Then we went to see KOURNAS Lake famous for turtles , it reminded me the lake of Pantelleria where you can make muds.. but as we not like the squishy soil we simply walked around and left.
The village close by GEORGIOUPOLIS was so nice and charming. We liked it. There is a small church in the middle of the sea that we could reach walking on a slippery sandstone.
Then we drove for 1 hour and a half to go to Falassarna beach. That was a dream. Such a blue water. Fishes….swimming was amazing. And the beach was so cosy . Guys came even to take orders for drink and food…
I am so happy we drove there!
Grande giornata finalmente di sole ! Siamo andati lontano, più di 1 ora e mezza DI MACCHINA però ne valeva la pena ! Falassarna beach!
Siamo andati a Playa Paraiso. Un lettino in prima fila ma dopo le cabane costa 25 euro . Davanti 50 ma col baldacchino … file dietro 20 euro .
I ragazzi ti portano cibo e drinks dal ristorante meraviglioso proprio sul mare . Che mare ! Che mare ! Balos troppo lontano e strada brutta quindi noi ci siamo ben rilassati a falassarna e ci siamo persi la pioggia !
Però non mangiate i souvlaki in spiaggia . Sono in realtà dei cebacic quindi pesantissimi ! E sono pure tre!!! Dovevo prendere altro ! Paolo al solito ha preso il petto di pollo che era molto meglio !
Inizierò con una nota gastronomica . A karphatos si mangiava meglio ! Oggi siamo andati in un posto carino e non era male … però come l’anno scorso ….
Tempo brutto così siamo andati a Chania . Città carina con il porto Veneziano e delle viuzze con case caratteristiche . Tutte rimesse a nuovo ! Un bel faro . Poi siamo andati a Rethymno che tutti dicevano essere meravigliosa . Beh la fortezza è bella però non è un posto dove ci lascio il cuore . Carina ma non eccessivamente . Ecco al baretto fuori dalla
Fortezza abbiamo bevuto una ottima limonata ! Qui la fanno spesso . Il cielo non prevede nulla di buono … speriamo domani di poter andare in qualche bella spiaggia !
Today we visited the Cnossos palace with a guide . It is so hot here ! I was dreaming of a beach but the palace had to be seen ! The rooms of the king are closed now but it was a good visit ! Then we headed to the center of Heraklion and walked around the square with the statue of the politician and the museum . Due to lack of time , we didn’t see the museum that was probably so good ! We bumped into the fountain of morosini that is in a nice square . The city hall in Venetian style and the church of san Marco that is now a museum for paintings . And the gem! The church of agios Titus that was amazing and I did took photos !
Then the port and the Venetian fortress . Back on time for a swim ! Lunch was in a place in the Main Street overlooking the fortress . Nothing wonderful , but good .
47 euro .
Drink at da Vinci . We had a good fresh lemonade that we loved !
