summer in London

Question of the week: What does summer in London mean to you?

"Summer in London means night being chased away by the increasing resilience of day; the scent of a gentle rain shower in the middle of a dry, June day; a garden painted with innumerable, decadent flowers; a glass of white wine shared with friends at one of the quaint shops behind Oxford Street; dusk, when the sky weaves shades of orange and red into an artistic masterpiece; dawn, when the first rays sparkle graciously through the window; the crowds anxiously destined for different, fun events; the river Thames reflecting the splendour of bright lights; and lastly, summer in London means being lucky."- Christina
