Trip Photos 1 (Jody's Photos)

A snapshot of my iPhone SE photos. Amazing quality and often taken in a hurry/dodging hoards of tourists!

Glastonbury Tor

My old stomping ground. A pretty easy walk to the top and the views of the Somerset Levels are fantastic. The picture of my legs is a recreation of one I took in 1995 on my first visit!

Bishop's Palace and Gardens, Wells

Bath

Sally Lunn buns at Sally Lunns in Bath. YUM!

 A trusty outfit featuring skinny jeans, my Karen Walker chambray top, my faux leather jacket and my trusty cashmere wrap that is THE most useful item of clothing I have. It might have cost $450 but it has paid for itself over and over from chilly mornings, through long transit waits at airports, to on the plane.

High tea at Fortnum & Mason

Shakespeare's Globe

No. 17 was the most beautiful little boutique in the centre of town. One of the (Danish) staff used to live in Ohakune!

Dutifuly eating our pickled herrings like true Danes.

Of course, I had to visit Sezane!

The Galeries Lafayette department store was just around the corner from our hotel and a symbol of western consumerism at its most mind-blowing.

Trip Diary Part 7: San Francisco

We were beside ourselves with jet lag when we arrived. It was a sunny day but cool. Once we had checked into our hotel we went looking for food but ended up at the hotel restaurant because we were starting to have out-of-body experiences by this point.

The first day we decided to just explore the neighbourhood around Union Square. Not the most charming area but some good stores! That night we went to Octavia restaurant and it was lovely. Very 'Melbourne' in its styling and in the nice area of Nob Hill.

The next day we walked to the Ferry Building then caught the ferry across to Sausalito and spent a few hours there. It was hot and sunny and lovely to wander around the marina. We saw the Golden Gate Bridge from a distance wrapped in fog of course!

We caught the ferry back and got ready for dinner at the busy and cool Marlowe, in a different part of town. Another recommendation and we really enjoyed it. It's owned by a Kiwi so it looked more like what we're used to. American restaurants are very fusty and old-fashioned in general. The place was packed, with a queue out the door.

Our last day is today. Our flight is a late one so we're going to MOMA this morning (after a visit to a hair salon as my GHD straighteners don't work here!).
