Flowermarket Columbia Road

Already on our way to the flowermarket yesterday we saw people heading back home with giant bouquets of flowers. So we hurried up just to see that the flowermarket still went full speed. The flower sellers were screaming and promoting their goods. The beautiful smell of all the flowers floated around everyone. "Two of these a fiver!" Yes, fiver is a word you'll always hear.

We couldn't imagine that this scenery repeats every sunday! We went on to find the cutest coffee shops in hidden corners. A must-come-back for us. I'm already looking forward trying some of those delicious cupcakes!!

Home again we decided to sit in our nearest park to chill out a bit. I was doing some photo editing while my friends either doodled, read or just enjoyed the sun (just like me).

After having a English Tea at Nero I went to Green Park station to walk to Buckingham Palace. The park is beautiful. I really liked the Canadian memorial near the Palace. At Buckingham Palace I saw some guy drawing different pieces of the palace in a scretch book. It looked really beautiful. I went on to take pictures

Day 18: Hyde Park

At 11o'clock I met Vincent (German, from EF school) at Starbucks at the Waterloo East Station. With the Bakerloo Line we went to Oxford Circus and visited the Liberty House. It's a pretty big (not as big as Selfridges for example but still enormous) mall offering brands like  McQueen, Westwood, Beckham, McCartney, Wang etc... and also decorative furniture, porcelain and much more. Inside you'll also find a flower shop .

Before school we went to eat something. Near our school is a little park that is next to a church and in front of the church are little booths that sell different food. For example Falafel (we tried a few for free :D) or Lamb Kebap. I later went to the Waterloo Station and ate an amazing Bagel with Bacon, Tomato and cream cheese! Recommendable!

At 14:20 my class started and at 15:55 I had iPad lesson which was really fun! We learned about Richard Branson the owner of the "Virgin" company. It's amazing which companies all belong to him. Click here if you're interested in the video we watched. I finished school at 18:50 and went to Knightsbridge together with Marina from Russia to meet Daria there. Stupidily we took the wrong exit at the station so we had to walk about 7 minutes to the other exit, haha! In the end we finally found each other and made our way to Hyde Park. On our way we passed Harrods, highlife hotels and luxury houses. I would not dislike living there. But inly if my family, relatives and friends will join me. :D

After about 10 minutes (and the realization we colud've meet at the station "Hyde Parks Corner") we reached the entrance of Hyde Park.

The park is giant! Plenty of joggers, bikers, roller skaters and promenader are scattered around in the park. People playing football or training in a kind of boot camp! There's much going on in the park.
