You know those love songs break your heart

Hello!

I'm so sorry I literally haven't posted in forever - I've been so busy/lazy to set my camera up and get some outfit shots but today is the day! (although they won't be posted until next week!)

I had a nice weekend though and took some pictures on my 2nd iphone (nightmare), so thought I'd share that!


On Friday night we went out for cocktails and dinner... it was a very long week of meetings and lots to do, so a Mojito was much needed and went down a treat!

On Saturday I GOT A BIKE! I'm now officially (kind of) German! It's a little vintage affair with a basket and bell - lovely! The sun was shining so it was only fair to take it out for a spin... not going to lie, I was absolutely terrified as I don't drive and thus have zero idea about rules of the road and where I was allowed to go and it's a miracle I survived, but I followed my bezzie German and we clocked up 15km!
We discovered that Dusseldorf has a botanical garden (who knew?!) and had a little salad picnic and beer before the rain started to come down and we sped home!




 After our cycle ride, we went to the pub to watch the Champions League Final. Now you may be shocked, but I'm not the biggest football fan... but actually it was a lot of fun! I was, of course, routing for Bayern which was slightly awkward because we were surrounded by Dortmund fans but hey ho!
After that we went to watch the fireworks over the Rhein which were part of Japan Day in Dusseldorf. They lasted 25 minutes and despite the rain it seemed every single person in the dorf was there - I have never seen so many people!





Today has been a relax day! I went to the gym this morning and made friends with the elliptical - cheeky 6km ;) and a little bit of rowing and now I am snuggled on my sofa with a book and a cup of tea listening to the new album from Passenger, looking like the old lady I am! 



 Hope you've all had a lovely weekend! What have you been up to?

I promise some outfit posts will be posted soon!! :D
Enjoy bank holiday Monday everyone not in Germany! ;)
