It was one of those weekends where you just don't want to go outside.

Wind blowing up at about the miles per hour in which you get blown off if you open up your umbrella, in fact even if you didn't open your umbrella up, you get blown away...

Rain pouring in and out, puddles, damp, cold. At times like this I am usually at home either on my laptop or in the kitchen coming up with some special recipe infused or making something from the internet.

But my childhood friend aka next door neighbour was here and was in London over the weekend. I took the opportunity to bring her out to my favourite markets.

So this was the attempted itenary or the previous itenary seeing that the weekend has passed already:

Went to try out spanish tapas food at La Tasca. Yuuuummm, we then headed out to capture a few nice night photo around Westminister area (where Big Ben is). First time I actually was up close to the London Eye. Took really cool pics. Check this one out ;)


Slept in (yahoo!) and didn't wake up till lunch time. When I peaked out of the window, it was pouring and the wind was blowing like craaaazzieee so we took our sweet time leaving. We headed out to the tube, only to find that the station we want to get off was closed! So we had to stop one stop before (where we started heading to the retail shops and had coffee at Starbucks). We only had like half an hour before we arrived and saw Portobello market lol. But yea, it was all good since the shops CY liked didn't close till later.

We went back to the restaurant to grab our forgotten umbrella, only to take a line which didn't pass through Kings Cross! So we had to bus back. We were home early as I needed and early start the next day.

Went to Liverpool Street station, whereby I showed CY 3 different markets in that area. Had my yummy Rainforest Roti Wrap and finally bought this dress I have been eyeing for since last year but didn't bother to buy it because it was £45! That designer was vietnamese though although his clothes looked Japanese to me. I sort of baked some banana cake and sold it at a friend's stall.

Sent CY off in the afternoon, came home and clean the place up before I headed back to the market again to see how things are. Manage to get nice deals at the food stalls towards the end of the day hehe. But gosh, I spent quite abit over the weekend and it has been awhile.

Tonight (Tuesday) am heading to watch a show called Dirty Dancing with my galfriends :). Will write about it next!
