A fortnight in London - the first

Started with the overnight layover at Mumbai airport. Spent it saying goodbyes to dear friends, drinking over priced coffee (Rs. 500 for one cup, to be specific) and gazing at planes flying off into the world. Thankful for the mask and hand sanitizer I had.

Onto the nine hour plane journey. Here's a mandatory sky click from the window seat. If you look closely, you'll see a snow capped mountain (is that what it is?)

This is how the United Kingdom welcomed me. 

  Let the adventure begin! English breakfast! Turned out to be too much for just me, but super yum!

                                                            

Cherry blossom season starting out, the Hammersmith bridge, pretty streets and houses - London already has my heart in fifteen days. Silent roads, peaceful walks - courtesy the Covid crisis.  Might I add that all these photographs are from me running essential errands, not unnecessarily frolicking around town.

And views like these, again courtesy the Corona virus.

                                           

Experiencing (and joining in) warm applause for NHS workers fighting at the front line in this crisis. Excited about starting work soon. Or may be not? But mostly, despite the crisis and the fact that i'm an Anesthetist and Intensivist (meaning I will be working super close to the infected lives) - i'm looking forward to work and to put my skills to use.

White magnolias, forever the girl who loves flowers 

How stunning does the reflection of trees in the water look...

Overcast, mild rains and the sun too! Suits me just right.

My hospital entrance <3

That's about it, the first fifteen days here in a few photographs. Hoping it only gets better. Cheers, as Londoners would say it.
