#CatTravels: Wedding bells in London

By Catherine Toth Fox • September 4, 2013 • #CatTravels, Food

Since many of you are having problems with my photo galleries — and I don’t blame you; scrolling down for every photo is mighty annoying — I’ve posted the gallery up top. Hopefully that will suffice until I get this all sorted out. Thanks for your patience!

Let's get there first!

The first thing we needed to do was get from Paris to London in time for the afternoon wedding. So we caught a Eurostar train that took us through the Channel Tunnel, a 31.4-mile undersea rail tunnel.

After all, we were here for a wedding.

That was the whole purpose of this jaunt to Europe. Derek’s friend from his days living in Japan was getting married to a woman from a small island off Greece.

We had stayed with them three years ago when we first visited London — and when we got the invitation to their wedding earlier this year, we saw it as yet another excuse to fly halfway around the world.

Guy and Maro were getting hitched at Hackney Town Hall, in the borough of London where they both had lived. It was going to be a fairly simple ceremony, done in the courtroom with maybe a few dozen friends and families in attendance.

Then we were off to — where else? — a pub for drinks, food and festivities.

What could be better than that?
