This weekend I stayed around London, Saturday went to the Portobello Rd Market, it runs the entire length of Portobello Rd, lots of fruit and veg stands and lots and lots of antique shops, then wondered into Kensington Gardens. Check out the Diana Prince of Wales Memorial children's park, walked past Kensington Place, then to the Serpentine Gallery - went in side to check this out, all the picture were of color blocks all done in different colored blocks. Very different, The outdoor structure was very interesting. Then to see the Diana Prince of Wales Memorial fountain. It was different than I expected but very nice. This was in Hyde Park. So got to see both parks in one day, then walking back to the Marble Arch, came across some kids having riding lessons in Hyde Park. Was an interesting day. Back to my flat for a few hours, then off to dinner with Janine and Larry, this time we tried out a Mexican restaurant on Leicester Sq. It was okay, had great Marquita's, the food was OK, but I've had much better Mexican food, but the best so far here. However the service sucked.... Sunday, forgot about setting back the clocks.. I was off to met Keiron and Michael for lunch in Soho, then to check out the Fortnum & Mason store. What a cool store, it is an upscale small department store, maybe not department store has it doesn't have clothing but lots of other really great and expensive stuff. We walked down Bond street to Oxford street and took a wonder thru House of Fraser. Then headed home, that was a chore, as the tube line I needed was suspended due to a signal failure, so had to take the bus, um.. got close so only had to walk from Hampstead Heath, which was to fare, about 15 minutes. So did pretty good just took a lot longer.
