Pauly and the WSOP Showgirls outside the LCI Empire Casino, Leicester SquareI offered my beloved 20 quid to take this photo. He said he'd do it for free.
We arrived safely last night in Jolly Olde England and a 60 pound cab ride later (that's $120 U.S., folks) we were ensconced safely in our (surprisingly posh) hotel just off Trafalgar Square. We're in the middle of tourist central, but less than a 5 minute walk from the Empire Casino where the inaugural WSOP-Europe will kick off tomorrow. I've already enjoyed some of the best Indian food of my life in my short time here (though Dr. P did not agree) and the weather is blissfully fair after sweltering for a week in Spain.
Our 30 hour jaunt to Amsterdam absolutely hit the spot for me and I'm thankfully back off the cannabis wagon. The trip was absolutely a blur and I think we hit up at least 7 hash bars (a far cry from the record 13 in 10 hours we did a week ago, but that's a blog for another time).
We took a lovely walk to the Southbank this afternoon and snapped photos of the London Eye, the Houses of Parliament, Big Ben, and Westminister Abbey. Hopefully I'll have a bit of time tonight to upload and edit them.
Now we're off to dinner. Italian food I think. After making Pauly suffer through curry, it's his choice tonight.

London might have the best Indian food in the world.
ReplyDeleteI found during visits asking one of the local Bobbies, they always know the best restaurants.
