London trip for a 16th birthday

 Today we went into London for the day in order to celebrate Rhiannon's birthday. Rhiannon, Poppy and I traveled in together and did some shopping during the main part of the day before Rhodri and Tryfan met us for dinner later.

The 3 of us girls had lunch at a Hawaiian cafe, which was really great, then we split up and walked around and met again at 123V, which is the vegan restaurant that Rhiannon chose for her special dinner.
Even though it was in the basement of the Fenwick department store, it was really great food and service. We all sat in a booth and had a great meal.
Despite (or maybe because of) the rain and the wind, it was a very festive atmosphere around New Bond Street and Regent Street. It felt pretty busy everywhere actually, which was surprising since it has been Covid restrictions etc all over. 
At the end of it all, we caught the train back to Haywards Heath station and then I drove Poppy home and we all went to be around 11pm.  A long day but a good one!
