London / Brighton Pt 4

December 21, 2013 by Jonathan Chow in London

Picking up where we left off, once we finished watching the sunset, we wanted to get out of the freezing wind and head into town to look for a place to grab dinner.

Everywhere you look you can see that everything in UK has been around for a long, long time. What us Americans think is old (100 or so years) is nothing compared to Europeans who can boast about centuries worth of buildings and landmarks.

Old churches everywhere you look.

Wonder if it has any connection to the MM on Fairfax...

As the sun started setting more, the sky started giving off a very distinct purple light. I'm used to orange/pink and reds (deserts and forest fires) but the only time I remember seeing such purple lighting was in Washington. A northern thing?

The Brighton Royal Pavilion again.

Now you can really see the purple I'm talking about. Very pretty though, especially on white buildings.

Found a Japanese place that had a good Yelp rating, but honestly we were a bit disappointed with the food. Still doesn't compare to our local go-to cheap Japanese spot located in Chinatown (of course).

And so concludes our trip to Brighton. Overall we enjoyed ourselves and I personally like it a lot more than London which at this point is starting to just feel like it's nothing more than one big shopping district. I've been lazy with putting up our trips so I'm on a roll with updating this blog with a backlog of our whereabouts. Look out for more tomorrow!
