Hyde Park, Notting Hill, Portobello Market

On Saturday the 29 of march we planned to go to the Hyde Park and have a little picnic. The weather that day was so lovely you could feel and see the spring arriving in London! The morning we spent strolling around the huge Hyde Park. The park has so many nice buildings and sights and just strolling in the park was already very much enjoyable! In the afternoon we drove to Notting Hill and walked trough Chelsea and Kensington all the way to Portobello Road. Luckily it was saturday so the road was packed with tons of small stands selling all kinds of things. I think the Portobello Road Market was one of my favorite things, I loved the vibrant atmosphere, the different food stands and all of the little nooks and crannies you could find at those stands. Also I made such an good find on a vintage Levi's Jacket. If we knew early and had more space in our suitcase, we could have gone a bit mental there. They had so many lovely vintage pieces-some even just for 1£! I will definitely keep that in mind for the next trip to London!

This was such an interesting monument- the albert memorial, on each corner were large sculptures representing the four 'main' continents; Asia, America, Europe and Africa

Royal Albert Hall was directly opposite the Albert Memorial-both of them are very opulent buildings

The last stop of the day was the infamous Harrods. It was packed with tourist and it wasn't the greatest thing in London but it's such a compulsory sight so we had to go!
