We spent the weekend in London to celebrate, and a few days later she skipped work to spend the day at a London spa. We&#8217;ve got a few pics (not from the spa, but from the general birthday events).<\/p>\n<p>We spent most of our time during her birthday shopping in the city. We paid a visit to the famous London department store Harrods where we saw a number of interesting things including a $43,000 diamond-studded wristwatch and the Diana\/Dodi memorial (Harrods is owned by Dodi&#8217;s father, Mohamed). Well wishers can gaze upon the large diamond engagement ring Dodi purchased and Diana&#8217;s unwashed wine glass taken from her last meal at the Hotel Ritz. The memorial is tucked away in one of the theme-decorated escalator rooms and is quite popular.<\/p>\n<p>The food shop is amazing and is actually the oldest part of the store. We plan to return their for lunch someday. Harrods is also the first department store I&#8217;ve ever seen that has a department dedicated to selling its own souvenir merchandise. Anyone need a box of Harrods pens? Or maybe a Harrods snow globe? How about a small bear with a Harrods t-shirt?<\/p>\n<p>On Saturday night we caught a play at one of London&#8217;s many historic theatres. We saw Feelgood, a cynical comedy about the effect of spin control on modern politics. Although set in Britain, the themes easily could&#8217;ve been appropriate to a US audience.<\/p>\n<div class=\"cycle_imgs_box\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/kimandtodd.com\/wordpress\/2001\/08\/kims-birthday\/#startshow\"><div class=\"cycle_imgs\"><div class='cycle_img_div' ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kimandtodd.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/flowers-150x150.jpg\" class=\"cycle_img\"><\/img><\/div><div class='cycle_img_div'  style=\"display:none\" ><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kimandtodd.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/mark-150x150.jpg\" class=\"cycle_img\"><\/img><\/div><\/div>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/kimandtodd.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/plugins\/kimandtodd-photo-tools\/images\/slides.gif\" class=\"cycle_overlay\"><\/img><\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My little sweet had her first birthday abroad last month.
