The lovely weekend started with a little bit of sun, and I brought my London new comer friend, Tina to something she had been longing for, English Afternoon Tea. Sketch is surely my favorite afternoon place, I literally brought whoever haven't try afternoon tea there. Interior of it is one the main point, French style X modern art, that's a big plus. Scone is T's best love, she did a great job finish all the cream with it. I love afternoon tea with all those little lovely cakes and scones; I can eat many of different thing. Relaxing with friends with a nice cup of tea. That's practically a perfect day out.
We spend the evening to something even posher, BBC proms. Prom 57 is performed by Minnesota Orchestra with Violin Concerto by Berg & Symphony No.9 in D Minor 'Choral' by Beethoven. I definitely like the Beethoven, I'm not big fan of classical music but I do feel it is very beautiful and comforting.
The funny thing is, we are not sitting in the tight seats in the Royal Albert Hall; we got the £5 tickets to go on the top of the hall; and guess what, people having a real good time with the music! Sitting, laying down, drinking, eating their sandwich in lunch box; it feels like indoor picnic with classy music. That is quite something, It's my first time to BBC Proms, it is all new and exciting. I think I will bring some sushi next time I go. (Anyone wants to try this, you need to go to Royal Albert Hall at 5pm and start queuing to get a number and get your cash ready for the ticket.)
