Moving Day

I was a bit of a tourist during my move. It was the first time I had ever crossed Tower Bridge and thought it was worthy of a few snaps. It's funny how a lot of people confuse this for London Bridge. I hired a 'man with a van' which cost 75 pounds plus tip. Getting to our meeting point was not a pleasant experience. What would've normally been a 17 minute train ride took two hours due to 'signal failure'.

When I finally decided to abandon my attempts at meeting my man with a van via train, I reserved a taxi from Addison Lee (my favorite taxi company in all of London!). They're amazing. You call in and they push a magic button and one appears when you need one! Ever since I've been using them they've been calling me Miss Florence Diaz. I figured, no need to correct them at this point as it could result in a painstakingly l-o-n-g administrative process. To say the least, the move took five hours including travel time but worth the view from my new pad.
