Just a quick blog tonight as i'm really tired (been a huge day)! It's almost 10pm and we have just returned from a lovely long day out in Camden Town.
The day started quite lazily which is always nice on a Sunday. After a few Skype chats to family back home, we headed out into the sun bound from Camden Town (via the local french bakery for breakfast of course - yum).
While we were not due to meet Danny and Annie until 12pm, we figured we'd head over early and check out all of the wares before the huge Sunday crowds hit. For those of you who have not been to Camden Markets you must go! Now there are a few markets dotted down the length of the road but I would suggest you bypass them all for Camden Lock Markets - they're FANTASTIC! Here you will find antiques, handmade jewellery and clothes, music, vintage clothes, furniture and Stu's favourite 'world food'!
As you can imagine it didn't take me long to find (and purchase) numerous items as well strolled around! One item I didn't purchase (but really, really wanted to) was a 1950's Louis Vuitton soft suitcase that I found amongst the vintage luggage in the Camden Stables section of the markets! It was fantastic and in immaculate condition! I was in LOVE! Anyway Stu was able to drag me away and it was soon time to meet Danny and Annie for lunch in the 'world food' section of the market. All settling on the aromatic sizzling chicken fajitas, we relocated to a neighbouring canal so that we could soak up the sun and watch the long boats cruise by.
Soon enough the sun became too hot for us all (surprising I know) so we quickly moved on to our next destination, Edinboro Castle, where we were due to catch up with a few old friends and cool off with our favourite summer poison; Pimms (me), cider (Danny), G&T (Annie) or beer (Stu)...
.... 8 hours later, the sun was starting to set so we decided that it was best we all head home for the night (this was 8:30pm)! What a fantastic afternoon..... what a trip down memory lane....
