In honour of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Just a few of my favorite spots in England, in no particular order ...
1) Anne Hathaway's Cottage - village of Shottery, Warwickshire
The romantic in me absolutely loves this spot! Anne, wife of William Shakespeare.
2) Lower Slaughter Manor - village of Lower Slaughter in the Cotswolds
When 9/11 happened, I promised myself that I would not allow the crazies of the world to win. I would not allow them to change how I live my life. I vowed to be on the first international flight once the grounding had been lifted. And that flight was around Thanksgiving time, November 2011 to London. Van, a dear friend of mine, was going to be in London, as well, we decided to spend several days in the Cotswold. We stumbled upon the lovely Lower Slaughter Manor. Everything about this luxury hotel is exquisite!
3) Sanderson Hotel - London
Peter, a close friend of Van's, was managing the hotel so naturally we stayed here. A very chic and hot hotel. Check out the elevator ... makes you feel as though you're floating in outer space!
4) Phone booths and corner flower shops ...
5) Beach Blanket Babylon - London
It's been several years since I was at the bar at this restaurant/bar, but it was very 'BoHo Chic'!
6) Brick Lane - London
Once poor slums, this electic Bangladeshi area is full of bars, music, art, dancing, restaurants, shops ... fun! Stacey & I had great fun dancing at The Vibe Bar and dining at an Indian restaurant.
7) Countryside and Footpaths
I love the English countryside! Love the public footpaths and the highly-hedged roads.
8) Bath, Somerset
The mesmerizing town of Bath.
9) Tea shop at Fortnum & Mason
Fabulous tea! Also, make reservations and enjoy high tea here.
