I'm pitching up a tent and living there. I'm so in love with it. And still in deep denial that those oh-so-talented people are not employed. Hurumph.

I'm assuming you mean London.

Darling, if you're going to live somewhere it might be an idea to learn the name of the place.

It's COVENT GARDEN.

Covent Graden and the surrounding area was my favorite place in London last summer. I especially liked the young opera singers performing outside of the opera house. It made lunch much more enjoyable!

Bret- Yes! There was a lovely opera singer there. And 3 guys doing Shakespeare duels...and lots of other things we went there a couple of times. And that Theatre museum was SO great!

Is it anything like the Harmonia Gardens?

LOL just kidding. Below is a webcam of Covent Garden (I believe it's outside of the London Transport Museum).

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Yes! I was the only person in my choir who wanted to go to the theatre museum. We were dropped off outside of the Aldwych Theatre, and walked to CG. We passed the museum, and I popped in. I absolutey adored it. Such a rich history. I then broke the rule of being in a group, and went off on a self guided theatre tour/shopping spree, and had a grand time for the next 3 hours!
