yesterday (mlk day), we went to camden town. camden is known for its huge markets and punkish crowds. we walked up and down rows and rows of clothing vendors selling everything from studded belts to vintage clothing. the vintage clothing was awesome but really really overpriced. there were also many food booths with lots of ethnic food. it all looked delicious and smelled good, too.
today after class stef and i ventured down baker street to the beetles store. the store wasn't too exciting but if nothing less at least we can say we were there. we also saw the sherlock holmes museum right next too. after that we walked through regents park. today the weather was very mild and the sun was shining so it made for a great park day. people were out feeding the geese and pigeons in full force. yes, actually feeding the geese! after walking through the park we made a short trip through st. johns wood (home to kate moss) and caught the tube to notting hill. notting hill is known for its great portobello street market, the best days for the market are saturday and sunday but we decided to check it out today anyways. there really wasn't too much still out by the time we arrived late in the afternoon but nottinghill in itself is a very picturesque neighborhood to walk around anyways.
