You might think I went to London...

to see the
Elephant Parade...

or possibly to see the
Quilt exhibition again...

and although I did both of those things, the real reason I went to London was to meet some friends.

Friends, who although I had never met either of them before, felt like dear old friends (and I use the word "old" to mean familiar as both were clearly MUCH younger than me!)

And as we laughed and chatted it didn't feel at all like we had never met before... but then that is one of the amazing things about blogging!

Sounds like a nice time was had by all. The elephants are great. There was a similar exhibition in Norwich a few years ago. They had been placed all around the city and we walked for miles trying to find as many as possible, and all because Steph collects elephants.
I really love those elephants!
Those elephants are lovely, glad you had a super day out. Went to Uppingham yesterday and they are going to have hippopotamus's and they had one drapped in a quilt to advertise the quilt show it looked great.
Thank *you* so much! I had such a wonderful time. I do hope we can do it again very soon. And I love the dandelion elephant!

Those are brilliant elephants ...where did you find them ?.....I didn't see them on the South Bank........Lorna
I love the dandelion elephant too.... have been looking at the heads on them in my garden and considering illustrating them against a blue background. How fascinating to have met fellow bloggers.... and in London too! How exciting!
Sounds like a lovely day out and the elephants are amazing. Jane x
I'm going to London on Friday and I will be elephant spotting too. You got some really good pics and managed not to snap any tourists hanging off them!

That must have been a serious treat. I'm rather in love with that elephant too!
I think the elephants are amzing, I especially like the dandelion one. I shall have to try and get to London to see them in the 'flesh.'
Aren't they brilliant I love them, a bit like the Superlambananas and Penguins we had here in Liverpool.
While they are all fabulous, Dandelion elephant is my favourite.
Love the elephants, they're fantastic! Can't wait to see what you have done in your book...
those elephants are sooo wonderful!!
You can't fail to have a lovely time with Alice and Kristina....and elephants, of course!
so want to see these elephants, they keep appearing on blogs and always make me smile :-)
Hi Gina The elephants were great, glad you posted photos for all to see. I remember Stuart mentioning them last weekend and I would not have seen them otherwise. I can't believe all that you have done in a week.
Ooooh, I need to go down and visit those elephants myself - they're wonderful!
