Beer and toothache through London

I am happy to declare that I spent the whole yesterday in haziness, thanks to my (still) aching tooth, the pain-killers and all those pints of beautiful English beer.

We went sightseeing, visited the Easter Real Food market, took a ride on London Eye, and we could see all the way to Windsor Castle, which is approx. 25 miles away! It was amazing, one of my top London destinations.

We took a shark walk in Sea Life London Aquarium, we walked above a stunning shoal of sixteen sharks as they swim just inches beneath. I even touched a shark’s sharp skin! I must say that it was NOT what I expected. Everyone should do that too!

In the evening I felt like I can not hope that this toothache goes away by itself any more, so as soon as we got back to the hotel, I asked about some dental offices on duty, however the guy at the reception recommended to wait until this morning to meet his dentist not very far away from the hotel.

After a quite bad night sleep, thanks to my snoring friend (Sorry Em) and my agony about the pain that kept me awake, I visited this dental practice as the first thing in the morning. Despite of my worries, the guy who runs the dentistry was very nice and he made me feel reassured at once. He examined my aching tooth, did an x-ray, and the bad news is that I have an infection around the root of tooth that I previously had a root canal on! He said that I need to take antibiotics and get the tooth pulled out as soon as I get back home to my ordinary dentist. This because we are going home on Monday and he thinks that I could manage until that. I was shocked! Pull my tooth? He said that I could have a tooth implant as soon as the gum is healed.

I should really get a second opinion…

Anyways, after that we went to see the making of Harry Potter attraction in Watford, where we could walk through the sets that appeared on screen including the Great Hall, Dumbledore’s office, the Gryffindor common room and Hagrid’s hut. It was truly amazing!

Some more sightseeing, and now we are back at the hotel to get ready for an other nice restaurant (this time the hip 28°-50° Wine Workshop & Kitchen) and then to find a night club to party at.

I just can’t wait to put my new dress on which I bought yesterday, and if John reads this, it did not cost a fortune, Nooo, it was on sale! LOL :)

Now, back to my makeup and hair… :)
