Ice Ice Baby

London IceBar has to be one of my favorite parts of the trip – ok, ok I say that a lot don’t I…well one of my favorite night’s of the trip, there that’s better! :p You set foot into what looks like a regular restaurant, where you’re given an icelandic eskimo cape in tact with a fur hood and arctic gloves. Before you know it, you”re escorted away into a double sided elevator that opens up into a real life igloo! Everything is ice. Everything from the tables, to the drinking “glasses”, the walls (with bottles of vodka embedded into them, what a waste – I hope they defrost to get those out) and random sculptures.

We headed to the bar where we ordered from the intergalactic cosmic menu – I got a fruity spiked strawberry and guava puree concoction – needless to say, it was delicious! The drinks were served in a block of ice, carefully carved out to keep my drink icy cold 😉 We mixed and we mingled, danced to the vibrant music in the arctic ambiance. Before we knew it, the 30 minute session was over – all in good time because I think I might have turned into an icicle if I’d stayed in that 0 degree Celsius icelandic wonderland for any longer!

Here I am rocking my cosmic artic cape, or trying to at least!
