Mother-Daughter Time in London...

Instead of catching the bus back from Dorset to Holland, Ashlynn caught a train to London. I also got up early that morning to catch a flight to London City Airport. I had just enough time before meeting her at Waterloo Station to drop my bags off at the new CitizenM in Shoreditch, which was across from this massive mural topped with painted tram cars.
We both loved Shoreditch and its crazy graffiti. 
Don’t think I could have timed photographing Ashlynn at the hotel entrance any better as I managed to catch a reflection of a passing bus. That afternoon, Ashlynn popped into the IMG Models office to say hi and we did some quick shopping; she was especially thrilled to be offered a model’s discount at Brandie Melville.
After a nice Italian dinner, we went to see The Woman in Black, which has been performed since 1989 at the Fortune Theatre, a rather small and funky theatre built in 1924 near Covent Garden. Ashlynn was thrilled to see it as she studied the book for GSCE English, and had gotten me to read it and watch the movies as well. The play differed from the book and movies by being a play within a play with just two characters. We both really liked it.
