A day at the market

Portobello Market is one of the best markets I have ever been to. We started our day there and although it was raining and I was freezing, the market was amazing. Not only was it giant, it was filed with the coolest stuff. We wandered all the way to the end where we found a cafe to have lunch and then decided what to buy. I bought a few scarves, "MJ" in old printing press letters and a compass. All so cool. We had a lot of fun and we were also able to buy dessert for cheap before the stalls closed. Plus the market was in Notting Hill so it was cool to say we were there and we even saw George Orwell's house!
Also, we found a Poundland aka the British dollar store so we went in to see what we could find and came out with a few things.
Afterward, Biz and I took Lindsey to Platform 9 3/4 and we took a few pictures and even walked around the station to see where they filmed the movie.
Afterward, we hung out at the flat for a bit and made dinner of salad, pasta and bread with wine for the four of us. It was a great dinner and we sat in flat 9 eating with our view of the London eye and watching the Harry Potter movie. Next we took Larry and Lindsey to all the pubs near the flat and played silly games at each stop. Biz and I even found a pub we think might be good to watch the World Cup. Then we took them to Tinsletown for shakes before calling it a night.
