winter wonderland

i am definitely still wishing it was the christmas season and that i wasn't sitting at a computer typing up my 5000 word essay. i got a chance to meet up with my old school friends during the christmas break and instead of meeting our tradition of hanging out in kingston, we decided to venture out to the festivities of winter wonderland.

gotta love photobombers.

sure enough it was festive, for everyone was flocking to hyde park and even getting on the tube was a struggle with so many people!

nonetheless, we were so excited by the massive christmas tree, the sweet smelling scent of nutella crepes and a gazillion rides whirling people around!

it was such a cute catch up and a time to free ourselves from the busy schedules of school and work. though the weather was bitterly chilly and windy, our hearts were definitely warmed with our laughters and conversations

winter sunsets occur around 4pm these days so it was a real shame it was getting dark so quickly!

^^ and here's my three kids playing on a little spinny ride! did i ever mention i can't deal with rides that spin you round? my childhood was ruined by the fact i can't withstand a teacup ride!

^^ of course, the obligatory photo under the winter wonderland sign!

and here's a little bus journey selfie to commemorate the blasts we had! i'm definitely missing these girls already...life will be so different when we leave to different places for university...maybe even miles apart!
