We love Notting Hill, but Camden Market is a close second. The clash of cultures and blaring music had vendors and shoppers alike bouncing and bobbing to the beat of a billion different tunes. Katie and I would catch ourselves dancing along too. It was great. So great that we spent two days hanging out and browsing the endless stalls of jewelry, antiques, and mountains of clothes.
We were so proud to find ideal gifts for our family and friends (we managed to find a little something for ourselves too). The first day we took cheap Chinese food home for dinner. The second day we decided to stay awhile and try more Chinese cuisine Camden had to offer. This time; however, we had some interesting guests join us in the "food court" for lunch. The pidgeons were a bit too friendly, hopping up onto the tables and begging for scraps. They were kind enough to leave tokens of appreciation... Needless to say, I quickly lost my appetite.
But thanks to the pidgeons, we had plenty of room for dessert! I had a Belgian waffle while Katie enjoyed a crepe. If you can't already tell, food and shopping is all that's left on our agenda. We've seen everything else in London. We're making the most of it.
If you don't mind the crowds and dirty pidgeons, you must go to Camden Market for loads of fun, food, and a lot of funk. It was an experience we'll certainly remember.
