We only had just over two days with the Kings before they were skirting off to Paris, so we wanted to make sure they saw at least all the major monuments. That obviously includes St. Paul's Cathedral, so after lunch at Chapel Market, that's exactly where we went.

James works directly across from St. Paul's, so he took this opportunity to show us his go-to pub nearby for watching sport.
After a pint, we got back on the bus and headed over to Trafalgar Square, where we were surprised to find an Indian festival was going on.
I'm a huge Covent Garden fan, so we deviated off course a bit to see the market and have another pint.
At this point, I was feeling tired, so I went home to relax while the Kings and James went on to Buckingham Palace. After a couple of hours, we met up back in Islington to grab some traditional fish and chips.
The food was good and everyone enjoyed it. Being that it was a Sunday night, things were calming down early, so we just went back to the flat and relaxed with each other for a bit before calling it a night.
It was so, so, so nice having our good friends here for the weekend and I know I started to get a little choked up when we finally said our goodbyes... It's so easy to fall back into the old routine with these familiar faces, but I know that no matter where we are in the world, we will definitely see them again and we will ALWAYS be the best of friends!
It looks like you guys had a good time! I love it when friends come over to visit!
