ロンドンに戻った翌々日、ハムステッドに出かけました。夫が大学時代にハムステッドに住んでいたそうで懐かしいからと随分昔に1度連れて行ってくれたことがありますが、多分今回が2度目。大学時代に撮った写真と同じあるところであるポーズで写真を撮るためでした。11月初めで日本はまだ暖かい時期だったはずですが、イギリスは木々も人もすっかり冬支度で、この日は少し雨がぱらついたりもして結構寒かったです。
On the 3rd day after arriving back to London, we went to Hampstead, where my husband lived when he was a university student. I think it was my 2nd time to go there . We went because my husband wanted a photo taken at a particular street, where I took a photo of him 20 years ago, this shot itself being a follow up to a photo that was taken of him in the same place 20 years before that. It was early this month and it was still quite warm in Japan but the leaves had already turned colours and lots of them had fallen off the trees in England. Both trees and people looked like they were getting ready for the winter.
ランチは、The Flask というパブで。
We had lunch at the pub “The Flask”.
多分、この旅では初めてのビター。
Probably our 1st bitter on this trip. We didn’t actually get a lot of beer on this trip.
ソーセージサンドを食べましたが、美味しかったです。夫はフィッシュアンドチップスだったような気がします。
I think my husband had Fish & Chips but not sure.. I had a sausage sandwich, which was very simple but good.
この後ロンドンに戻って少しお買い物をして、ホテルに戻りました。
We then went back to London, did some shopping before heading back to the hotel.
