Spitalfield Market

Paris was a big trip, so Katie and I felt justified for sleeping late on Monday. However, we managed to get up and go see some more places around London. Our first stop on the agenda was Spitalfield Market. It was kind of small compared to Notting Hill, but the cute shops surrounding it were fun to browse. Too bad they were too expensive to buy anything.

We've started to see a pattern at this point. Pretty much all the markets sell the same thing. We've seen the same dresses and clothes at almost every venue. The prices are the same too. When we find something that's out of the ordinary, we're sad to see it's considerably more costly. Katie's pretty good at bargaining though, so she managed to get a good deal on a few items she found.

Spitalfield was fun, but it was cold that day so we were ready to head back where it was warm. I'm getting a little homesick at this point, knowing I'm about to miss all the snow fun that's about to happen in Oklahoma. Katie's ready to move to London :-) Either way, this blog is a shout out to our friends and family. Just one more week to go. We're making the most of it, but we're also looking forward to coming home and sharing our journey with our loved ones.
