Fun and Finds = London #8

YUMMY!

Yes, the food in

London

is surprisingly good

given it's bad press

But even tastier are

TREASURES

Shall we step out for a day?

Time to wake up and get movin'!

But where should we go?

The tube is a speedy and efficient

way to navigate around London.

Let's try Spitafield's Market,

shall we?

Check out the route ...

any transfers needed?

Remember that we're

"not in Kansas anymore"

But it seems Dorothy's pals

have decided

London

is the place to be!

The market is full of

many types of stalls.

Some booths have BOXES

of things to dig through ..

Others are neatly displayed

and PRICED.

The keys on this table -

from and old jail.

180 BPS ...

that's about $270 ..

they were not among my purchases.

But, look at all these treats ...

And even more ...

Whew ...

a lot to look through.

Maybe we should head

somewhere else?

But first a quick snack ..

Look no further!

American style brownies.

Don't know what made them

"American Style"

but we LOVED them!

This is our next stop.

Our destination?

Even the traffic signs

want you to have a good time!

Look at this cute shop!

(and a perfect name, too!)

Some "toys" for our guys?

(Yes, Mr. Sammy Girl spent a

LOT of time at this stall!)

Maybe some vintage paper?

Silver?

Old glass?

Oops ... not for sale, silly ...

those are 1 and 2 AD at the

British Museum!

But I WOULD LOVE to have ....

An old clock or two?

(I am seriously thinking about returning

to see about this beauty!)

Dolls or miniatures?

This is Heather.

She has AWESOME goodies

in her shop.

The bell jar arrangement

behind her is

INCREDIBLE.

Wind up and a bird in the flowers sings ...

More bits and bobs

than ANYONE could want!

And of course the china!

(only three sets of these

black and pink with rose beauties,

or they WOULD be mine!)

Mmmmm..

Time to drag ourselves away.

Heading back for real food

and sleep.

Tomorrow?

Shopping or culture.

Tough choice!

Hugs and may your days be filled with WONDERFUL CHOICES.
