LONDON: Day Five

Rachel's sisters hosted a really nice bridal brunch at our rented flat for all the American ladies as well as Rachel's mum and godmother.  We had some "Buck's Fizz" (otherwise known as mimosas), berries, bagels, smoked salmon and cream cheese, jams, and-- thanks to a last-minute internet Martha Stewart recipe search-- some all-American pancakes with lots of maple syrup.

Steve, meanwhile, met the groomsmen at Borough Market-- one of my favorite London places.  They got some lunch (Steve ate a bratwurst and a sausage roll), and Steve bought some turkish delight for the girls.

Later in the day, Aunt Becki and Bradyn joined our little family for a jaunt across the bridge to Southbank, where we watched some street performers, Avery chased pigeons, and the kids played at a park.

That evening was spent relaxing at the flat, and Steve and I had time to sneak out onto Villier Street after bed time for yet another bratwurst, and fries dipped in mayonnaise (genius).
