Ready for a zillion more London photos? This one goes on and on. Instead of touring the churches or castles we had to hit up one of the infamous markets on Saturday in London. There was so much to see I couldn't even focus...however my camera did! :) I was split up from the girls for about 2 hours because I got lost taking photos and ended up buying a SHWEET old film camera from the 1950's. (Yashica 44) Now I just have to get some film! I have been thinking of going back to film for fun and because it's so classic and lovely. I also bought a new dress and pair of boots...how could I not in London? Honestly?! As one of the fashion capitals of the world, it was definitely cool just walking around and seeing what people were wearing. I love the styles, love the accents, love it all! The Portobello Market near Notting Hill was definitely interesting and PACKED with people and weird things. Meat, beads, antiques, colorful scarves, silver and much more.
Heaven?
Diana testing out the camera I was about to buy.
I ran into these lovely old men on the street. They told me they were just out taking a stroll...in their old English army uniforms. ;) The metals they have there are for good behavior. They live in a veteran retirement home just down the street. Coolest accents ever!
I happen to spot a Lewis Carroll collection on opening weekend of Alice in Wonderland. I should have bought it. Just saw the 3-D version of the movie tonight! Brings back so many great memories from performing the one-act in high school. 'I've believed as many as six impossible things before breakfast.'
I had Lydia take a shot of me with my brand new old camera when we stopped for coffee and tea.
