After a leisurely morning getting caught up on logs and blogs and continuing to do some of the things that need doing at the end of the trip, we headed out for Portobello Road and the famous antiques market that has happened every Saturday for a very long time. It is quite close to where we are staying. We walked up the road to Notting Hill Gate and followed the massive crowds to the market street. Even with the crowds, it was a lot of fun, with lots of good people-watching!
After going to the market we went to a shop in Sloane Square, and then headed back to the flat via the meat market in our neighborhood. We bought two meat pies - one with lamb, one with chicken. We heated them in the over and ate them - well, half of them - with fresh asparagus we'd bought at the market. Yum! We'll repeat with the leftovers on Monday night.
