Thames Festival




We spent yesterday afternoon and evening at the Thames Festival. It was so much fun! We took the tube from High Street Kensington to St. Pauls and walked across the millennium bridge to the south bank where the festival lined the river from the Tate Modern all the way to Tower Bridge. The entire Southwark bridge was turned into a cafe with tables and center pieces where you could eat the food from the vendor selling the river and bridge. We all enjoyed some butternut squash soup with bread, perfect on the chilly Autumn night. It was the beginning of fall here, with pumpkins, hay and a harvest feeling all around. Bands were dotted across the festival too, Hoyer had fun dancing in the bjourn, wiggling his feet and smiling at everyone! The Tate Modern had incredible exhibits, including the fire above. I bought Hoyer a jumper and a necklace for me! We had so much fun, it really felt like a community out there, everyone was happy and in a good mood, the weather was perfect. Oh how we will miss London!
