After a run that proved how out of shape I was, I took the number 9 bus to Kingsbridge today. It was there that I first encountered Harrods: costco of the rich. Every designer under the sun is stationed in this decadent and overwhelming posh department store. But did I stray to the Marc Jacobs displays or cover myself in free samples of eau du too much money? Nope, I am a foodie at heart and I spent most of my time gazing lovingly at all the deliciousness that stood not even 20 feet away from the Versace scarves. Honestly it is the most bizzare thing to walk from a Cartier display and turn into a room decorated with dead livestock. But I didn't stare at that for too long, I found the candies...
OM NOM NOM
Lots of fun but I had to move before I cancelled out what little work my run had done for me. It randomly became sunny as I wandered throughout the shopping district and so I grabbed a quick coffee at my new favorite cafe http://www.pret.com/. Mochas actually taste like they have chocolate in them. And these places are everywhere in London. The Caffeine addiction continues on.
I did some touristy time at the Wellington Arch, and took photos of an especially schizophrenic London squirrel.
Seriously, I thought it was rabid so I kept my distance.
Well I suppose that is all for now. I move into my homestay house tonight! I bet I won't have nearly as much time to write down my deep thoughts but I will try because it's honestly more for me then you creepers. Sorry to my one follower, Lauren ;)
I shall be back! Cheers!
