How was your trip? What places you visited? Was it fun?
It was amazing! I stayed in London 5 days but only in Camden about 2. It's a ways out from where I was staying by tower bridge so once in Camden we stayed there. I dragged my mom around all over trying to find all the Amy spots 😂 Went to the market, found the 'good mixer' right away as it's right by one of the markets. Then 'Hawley arms'. Took pics and went it really quick but didn't have time to stay and eat, drink. Found the Amy statue and took lots of pics. It's in he horse stable market. It felt so surreal being there thinking it's the area Amy was all around ! I love London! Then crazy story- took my mom to see Amy's old house. The one where she had many bad nights and paps camped outside :/ took pics(love the street btw). As we were leaving we were going to cross the street and someone asked us for directions. He said he was looking for her old house for his niece who's a huge fan so we said omg we were just there, we can show you. We took him to see it and we were talking. I was telling him her dad still lives in her first flat on Jeffries st. Jeffries st is right next to this st. Anyway as I was telling him a car is backing up almost into him to turn around. I say watch out. When I looked at the driver it was Mitch himself! I was like "Mitch...hi" kinda thinking out loud cause I couldn't believe it was him. I've only seen him in pics. Holy crap it's a small world! He said "hey you alright" something like that and drove to Amy's first flat where he lives. My moms like how do you know his name? I'm like "mom! That is Amy's dad Mitch! Hello! I was just telling you he still lives here " Lol . She's like "oh wow let's go says hi". I'm like 'omg no'...I hate bothering people btw. Whenever I see a celeb in ny I never go say hi. Anyway my mom doesn't care so she along with the guy starts walking towards him and I'm trotting along behind like omg what do I say? Lol anyway long story short he was really really nice. My mom told him I'm a huge fan of Amy and how I had her all over Camden looking for the Amy spots. Haha It turns out he had left for the day but lost his house keys and came back to look for them. What are the chances? I feel like Amy sent him for me because I was just so emotional and just ..idk I can't explain. I already met her mom 2 years ago in ny. Anyway we took pics which I won't post because I don't like how I look in them haha but if you want to see I can send them to you but yeah Mitch was super nice and just as I imagined him. Thick London accent..looks the same. My mom really liked him as well. Anyway just can't believe how it all happened because we had already left until that other fan was looking for her house that we went back with him, so we almost missed Mitch! Everyone in camden must know one another idk so yeah after that we went to the house which she passed in, it was about 8 minute walk to Camden square. I left her a little message on the tree. I felt sad looking at the house as I've seen it so much online in pictures of when she passed. I miss her so much. London was great though and I can't wait to go back. I didn't get to go to jamon jamon or the Brazilian jazz club she loved as I don't think it was IN Camden. Well I just didn't have enough time but yeah:/
