from the weekEND

Here are a few photos from our weekend (pronounced weekEND in the UK). It was spring/ summer like weather- almost 70! Saturday we stopped in Windsor for some swan sightings, fish and chips on a picnic table and an outside ale. Sunday we went to the market in Camdentown- the birthplace of British punk! You know a place has turned mainstream when there's a Starbucks right in the middle of it :) but it was great. We saved our money for the important stuff- the food! There were outside stalls with Argentinian steak sandwiches, Polish pierogis, French duck confit burgers, and Peruvian cuisine, but we opted for kielbasa and buttery potatoes with spicy mustard and grilled onions, a Turkish grilled chicken kebab, and Vietnamese stir-fried noodles! We walked around the market and had a pint by the river and then stopped by Primrose Hill in Regent Park to burn off a couple bites of our International lunch. There was a man whose outfit matched his dog, someone flying a kite, and lots of people on blankets enjoying the cloudy but mild day and beautiful view.
