Borough Market

Part of Dave's Tour of London, includes a trip to Borough Market, which he and Rachel seemed to really enjoy, so today we decided to check it out. What a great place - it is the farmer's market to end all farmer's markets, with wonderful fresh produce sold by local farmers and baked goods around every corner.

We left extraordinarily full, but no guilt – we went on a run this morning! We headed over to Jermyn Street, another stop on the Dave sightseeing tours, which has more men’s shirt stores than I have ever seen in my life. Next time Jon complains about having to go in another souvenir shop on vacation, I will have to remind him on this experience. We left no stone uncovered, literally.

Piccadilly Circus is at the end of Jermyn Street, so we made a quick stop at one of the aforementioned souvenir shops (even though we are not on vacation), to go back to the same shop we visited with Bridget and Jimmy to pick up a few knick-knacks for the kids. I guess I didn’t waste much time getting back at Jon :)
