Happy New Year!

yesterday was a day of festivities all around London as we celebrated Chinese New Year. in Trafalgar Square there were booths of food and toys and a huge stage with dancing and singing and other performances. it was incredibly crowded, but really fun nonetheless!

all the people milling about trafalgar square:


the national gallery is at the end of trafalgar square


there were lots of balloons and lots of precious british children so i was in heaven


ralitsa and lana watching the performances. and yes, that is snow. currently, i am in the midst of the largest snowstorm the uk has seen in 18 years, so that's just great.
