Ok, here´s the last one of all my excuses for not being creative in the last few weeks:
Just the fact that nearly 8.000.000 people are living there - almost the same amount of habitants as in my little country Austria!
We found a very nice room (private) http://www.9flats.com/de/places/9755-wohnung-london-camdentown?origin=search and had a really good time there - although it was quite exhausting to whip through this huge city in 2,5 days! The weather was cold and wet, but our very friendly host assured us, that this is the "real London experience" :-)
We managed to see Big Ben, Picadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square, Notting Hill, Portobello Road, Camden Market, The Tower and Tower Bridge and the new/old Shakespeare Theater...
I enjoyed strolling through Camden Market and Portobello Road Market very much... we bought quite a few "keepsakes" :-) ... and sometimes only just having a look was very delightful, too...
As I already said, it was very cold and wet and sometimes we just had to indulge ourselves with some yummy treats...
...aren´t they absolutely gorgeous?
Stunning cake-decorations, don´t you agree!
Ok, I guess you´re pretty tired now of all my excuses - in my next post I´ll show you something handcrafted again!
Until then - have a nice new week! Thanks for stopping by!
