2 Days in London | Canal Boat, Camden, Breakfast Club & Meeting Jim Chapman ❤


Hello Everyone! Welcome back to my blog, today i'm going to be blogging about my recent couple of trips to London where i visited various places over London and met Jim Chapman, all exciting! So grab a drink, relax and read this sunday's blog post ♥

Wednesday 12th August // 

So on Wednesday i went to Little Venice for a canal boat ride to Camden Lock. I got the tube to Warwick Avenue and then we made our way to the canal, it was £8.30 each for a single there and it was a 50 minute journey which i think is really well priced considering the journey itself. It was incredibly beautiful nd it was such a sunny day as well which made it better. We went through Regents Canal and by London Zoo and then into Camden Lock. It was such a cool experience seeing all the boats along the canal and the incredible houses that were along the canal too. I'll insert some photographs here of the beautiful views! http://londonwaterbus.co.uk/














 We then got off the boat at Camden Lock and walked around Camden for a little while, i wanted to pick up a pair of sunglasses from Camden Market as they do super cheap and nice ones. We walked around the food stalls and i picked up a freshly squeezed lemonade which was lush! The food stalls in Camden are amazing, there is so much to offer.





the sunglasses i picked up in Camden <3 



 We then hopped on the underground to go get some lunch and we got off at Angel and headed to The Breakfast Club. It's one of my fave places to eat in London, they're so quirky, the service is brill and the food is UNREAL. I was a bit naughty and had pancakes with bacon and maple syrup and a latte. It was so incredible but i literally could not eat it all, they were so filling! I highly recommend the BB club because it's amazing and not expensive either for what you get! It has such a cool vibe to it as well.  http://www.thebreakfastclubcafes.com/







We then walked around Islington for a bit and then chilled out at a pub along Islington High St called The York and had a glass of wine (classy af lol) and then made our way home! 





Thursday 13th August //


On Thursday i went to meet Jim Chapman (very very famous youtuber if you don't know then bye lol) and i went to his signing/meet and greet at Waterstones Piccadilly London where around 300 subscribers attended! He had previously signed his notebook from his stationary collection "James and Friends" (which is amazing btw) so everyone had time to have a chat and also take a photograph. It was incredibly well organised and we only had to wait for an hour to get in and meet him. I was so excited to meet him as i haven't met him before and have been wanting to meet him for a really long time. When we got in the que we got given a little leaflet with all the details of the meet and greet & then a guy came round to scan our tickets and give us wristbands. 




We then went into Waterstones and we got given the notebook as we went into the signing room and then we qued up to meet him. It was finally my que to meet Jim and he was SO SO lovely. He gave me a hug and said hello and asked how i was, he also asked my name as well which i thought was cute. We then took a good old selfie which i'll of course insert below! He was so lovely as i expected and a lot taller than i thought as well!





And now i'll add a couple of my touristy photos! Couldn't help snapping in Piccadilly Circus...





I hope you enjoyed this weeks blog post about my 2 day trip to London, i will see you next wednesday with my festival essentials post!
