Oh, What a Day: Borough Market, Sky Garden and the Wham's Karaoke Leaving Do

For our last Saturday in London, we headed over to one of our favorite places: Borough Market. We walked across Tower Bridge to get there dodging tourists along the way. We love Borough Market because of the atmosphere and variety of food vendors. Almost anything you order is fresh and delicious. Plus, the free cheese, meat and bread samples are nice too : )

After Borough Market, we walked across the river towards Fenchurch street, a building nicknamed the "walking talkie". At the top of the building is the Sky Garden: the whole top floor has plants and is enclosed in glass. There's a bar and lots of seating, plus a small patio outside. We enjoyed a drink overlooking the amazing 360° views from the top.

We then headed home to continue packing and have some down time before our big leaving do: a karaoke party at one of our local pubs (the Southern Belle) with all of our friends. It was a very memorable night and we sang our heart out to all of our favorite songs. But the best part about it was that we were able to spend time with so many of the amazing people we've met in London. It's really been an incredible 2.5 years here, and we've made so many good friends along the way. It's hard to leave, but we have some great memories and "oh, what a night!"
