While I was in England I set up a time to meet up with my
brother who lives in England. Tyler, my brother, lives in Tadley which is an
hour and a half outside of London. Tyler and I have the same dad and different moms.
His mom, or should I say mum, is from England, so that is why Tyler was raised
there. He is 2 years older than I am, so whenever we see each other it is
always fun because of the closeness in age.
He and his other sister Loren, who I am not related to, took
the train into London and stayed at the same hotel our group was staying in,
the Premier Inn in Hanger Lane. I was so happy to see them I cried. At this
point I had not seen him in almost two years. I was beyond excited to be with
him again. At this point we visited in the hotel bar and had a few drinks to
get reacquainted.
Luckily that night was a “free” night so Tyler, Loren and I
took the tube into the city to go to a few pubs to watch the football match
(soccer) and have a few pints. Tyler took us to an old antique looking pub. It was
so beautiful! The walls were a glossy wood and the ceilings had amazing hand
painted murals that looked like something Michelangelo created.
We spent more time talking and catching up
while I watched one of my first football matches. This was such an unbelievable
night. I was in an authentic pub in London with my brother that I have not seen
in so long, sharing drinks and watching a match with a crowd of Londoners. This
was easily one of the best nights I have ever had.
