There have been many requests for Angelina watercolors and this is just a toe in the water. I promise!
I visited Angelina 3 (!) times in 2 weeks and I would have stopped in the last day but my breakfast companion wasn't in the mood :(

HUMPH!
I'd always thought, when people talk about the legendary Mont Blanc at Angelina they were referringto this pile of whipped cream...WRONG!
THIS is the Mont Blanc!
Not that it looks like the famous snow-topped mountain to me...
Not that anyone asked...

The window seat is what I always yearn for but you must arrive early to catch one of these. Angelina opens for breakfast at 8 AM 7 days a week...
Of course Little Bear got to come along and have his own cup of the famous hot chocolate!
