Yesterday I spent the morning with my uncle who lives here in London! We don't get to see him very much because he's big and important, so this was a very exciting day. He decided to show me around Camden properly, because I'm a fool and don't know how to get around the city.
|
skateboard anyone? |
|
cool hip buildings #imadarkangel |
Our first stop was Camden Lock, on the Regent's Canal:
|
I nearly dropped my phone in |
|
I'm in Venice! jk |
|
there I am! |
|
chummy like the fish |
From there, we toured Camden Market. It was busy and maze-like and bohemian and probably the coolest thing I've seen yet! We went to a section called Stables Market.
|
ghosts of the stables |
|
twins |
|
blue (guitar) skies |
|
smiling through the overpriced-ness |
Then we headed to the British Museum. Before we got there, we saw this building which was apparently in Batman!
|
ft. trees that weren't in batman |
We only perused the British Museum for a little bit,
|
less impressive backside of the museum |
|
I <3 history |
|
where's waldo? |
|
totally as tall as the totems |
|
I promise I was thrilled |
but we did see a wicked exhibit called Witches and Wicked Bodies. All I can say is, cheers to Saint Anthony the Great/of Egypt/of the Desert/ Tormented by Demons. Guy is crazy strong. I did like this one quote above horrible pictures of demons and dragons and torture:
|
possible excuse for constant coffee? |
|
not so tall anymore |
|
slightly more impressive entrance |
|
bye British Museum! |
We met up with his fiance in Covent Garden, where we got some delicious cupcakes! I tried a banoffee cupcake (banana and toffee), which was quite good.
|
better than a Tiffany box |
|
not even sorry |
Then they abandoned me at Embankment, so I was off on my own again. I set off across the Golden Jubilee Bridge,
|
naked tipi |
|
Eye'm coming for you |
|
Waterloo Bridge and St. Paul's Cathedral |
|
I'm sorry I'm this way |
and made my way to the foot of the London Eye!
|
wheeeeeel |
The line went all the way to America so there was no way I was doing that, but I crept my way over to it anyway.
|
WE CLIMB |
I did have a lovely view from the banks as well:
|
aforementioned golden jubilee |
|
I think I like London |
