We are in London for a few days, and then we are going to visit a blip friend, Blancmange, for a few days. I have never been outside London, so am looking forward to seeing a bit of the countryside. London is busy as always, but the weather has been wonderful, almost too hot for us used to Iceland's coldness. Our hotel is opposite Russel Square Park, there were lots of people enjoying the autumn weather today in the park.

The hotel we are staying in is quite nice, there is a Nespresso machine with pods, a little fridge that we quickly filled with wine and beer, plus free bottles of water every day. I think London has now replaced New York as my favourite big city! Not only because of the nice hotel, but also because people are so friendly, 2 guys helped carry our suitcases up the stairs when we came from the airport (I was of course convinced that they would steal them and run away with them!), but it did not happen.
