    ๐Ÿ“ธ It took all day, but eventually the clouds cleared and the sun made an appearance. A nice end to a very gloomy day. Autumn is definitely seeping in... #London #LondonLife #RiverThames #TheShard #HighriseLife #Sunset #LondonSkyline #BlueSkies

    ๐Ÿ“ธ Tonight&#39;s pre-dinner drink. I finally managed to get my hands on some of the peach flavoured -196 from Suntory and I&#39;m happy to report that it&#39;s as delicious as I&#39;d hoped! ๐Ÿ‘ Maybe even nicer than the lemon version. ใ‹ใ‚“ใฑใ„ #Suntory #Shochu #Vodka #Peach

    Drinking coffee in bed and preparing myself mentally for a run outside. Looks sunny, but I may need to layer up! ๐Ÿฅถ

    Managed 6.44km this morning and it was very comfortable. Fairly consistent pace. But most of all, the sunshine was beautiful and powered me along! โ˜€๏ธ First run since the Pride 10k and it felt really good! ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ #running #RunningLondon #ThamesPath #Strava

    Our last full day in Morelia today. Iโ€™ve planned as far as quesadillas for breakfast! ๐Ÿ˜œ Tomorrow morning, we fly to Puerto Vallarta for the final few days of the trip. Itโ€™s been really lovely here, but Iโ€™m definitely ready for a new locale and some new sights. Including the beach and sea!! #Morelia #Mexico #Travel

    Ah... Just read that Dolly Parton has died. Very sad news, but what a life! Music aside, her legacy of charity and literacy promotion will live on.

    Sunshine, a swim-up pool bar, and an ice cold beer. Heaven is a place called Puerto Vallarta. A super change of pace after lots of running around! #PuertoVallarta #Mexico #Travel

    Feeling ever so slightly fragile this morning, after a very late night. But it was great fun - totally worth it. Only thing on the agenda today is an afternoon tea we booked over near Tokyo station. Apart from that, weโ€™ll definitely be taking it easy - itโ€™s set to be 35C here today ๐Ÿฅต #tokyo #MacPsychInJapan

    Morning. Still in bed, enjoying coffee number two and being sucked into YouTube videos about how Japanese Gen Z peeps organise their tiny apartments in Tokyo. It&#39;s somehow... soothing? Also: I&#39;m going to stop moaning about how little storage our apartment has!!

    Busy on travel planning, researching and excitement. Trying to make a layover in #Helsinki a little longer, so I can enjoy the city for a day before flying on to Tokyo. โœˆ๏ธ #TravelPlanning

    Looks like a lovely morning out there. Once I&#39;ve managed to fully reanimate my body, I&#39;ll be heading out for a run ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ Need to enjoy the sunshine before the forecast rain arrives - seeing as it&#39;s a Bank Holiday weekend ๐Ÿ˜ญ

    I&amp;#39;m not sure what I&amp;#39;m enjoying more this morning: - The victory of a democratically-elected opposition over a bigoted, fascist regime in #Hungary ๐Ÿ‡ญ๐Ÿ‡บ or - Responses from butt hurt US fascists (and fascist-apologists) claiming it&amp;#39;s like the fall of Rome. When they couldn&amp;#39;t find Hungary on a map. ยฟPor quรฉ no los dos? ๐Ÿคฃ
