Mom is here visiting over the weekend and luckily her visit coincided with the celebration of the Chinese New Year. Unfortunately London offered the worst possible conditions - four degrees and rain. We defied the rain, put on our ski jackets and headed to Trafalgar to help welcoming the year of the snake.
Mom tries out some toys. Maybe a present for someone lucky...
Anybody up for learning some Mandarin?
After spending some time at Trafalgar Square we headed off to China Town. We figured we would have a look and maybe have some Chinese food.
The rain kept falling...
...but we were happy anyway
Although, it turned out we were not the only ones craving a Chinese adventure and some cuisine... Gerrard Street (main street in China Town) was packed. Lots of people and some magic creatures...
We gave up on the idea of Chinese food - just not doable... We went on to one of our favourite places, an Italian restaurant off Leicester Square. Just outside we ran into a dragon and her guardians.
