Classical Nights

Erik took me out to a classical music concert at St. Martin's in the Fields, just beside Trafalgar Square the night before I left for Turkey. They played Vivaldi's Four Seasons among other favourites. I was thrilled to bid my home adieu for a few weeks. Adios, Dartford...



The concert hall is this church (which I suppose is still a functioning house of worship), with this funky window in the back, pulling the rectangular glass panes into a cross of sorts. Cool, right?





After the music was over (and it was just amazing. At no point during the performance did I want to leave, Philharmonic-styles), we went to our favourite haunt, Gordon's Wine Bar, for some cheese and wine. Sounds like a pretty great meal to me ;)


(sorry for the grainy picture. I just couldn't bear the thought of being touristy and flashing in this place.)



I'm still amazed that I live here...it's a good life.

Here's to another awesome year.
