sunday in dover

to risk sounding like a total ingrate, the weather has been unbearably warm of late and we've spent the last few sundays at one park or another. from hyde park to primrose hill, it started to get a little same-y after a while and wanderlust got the better of us. as we were going to roadtrip to belgium the next weekend, the mister suggested we  recce the channel tunnel route and swing by dover. now we've been going out for six years and i really should've known better than to take him on face value when he said we could visit the dover high street and tea rooms. sold on the idea, despite the 2h drive each way (and an early dinner with friends back in london!) we set off. until we reached dover and i saw the gps had been programmed for the white cliffs. that the mister was determined to climb. with me in tow! never mind i was dressed for a fancy dinner (black silk dress, cropped jacket, pearls, LKbennys...) so looking like the best dressed walkers / clowns, we took the scenic route and soaked in the views of the white cliffs. 



it's times like this that i'm glad we leave the picnic blanket in the car, and a pair of flats for me! what also made all the difference (and stopped me from shoving the mister off the cliff) were the freshest, sweetest fruit we picked up from a roadside cart.  


fear of missing out (i.e. FOMO) had us shifting picnic spots every so often. and at the last spot we settled for before heading back to the capital, we saw this little boat doing infinity signs. and that's when we remembered it was exactly a year since our singapore wedding celebration. "to infinity and beyond" was our wedding tagline and seeing it so randomly a year on was sort of like a wink from the universe ;)
