Cheers to the weekend!

So on my 5 mile meander last night I neglected to bring my camera...so I made up for it by bringing it on my jaunt today!
 
This is the doorstop to my building.  There are 5 flats, but luckily I live on the ground floor!

 
There are motorbikes EVERYWHERE!  They are the craziest drivers, giving NYC cabbies a run for their money.  But I just had to snap a pic of this row of bikes...they are pretty.

 
Real double-decker buses! This is on Southhampton Row, one of the major streets near our flat.

 
This is our Sainsbury's...it's not the biggest or the best-stocked, and certainly doesn't compare to America's supermarkets.  But it's close enough that we can carry our groceries, and it has really good take-away Indian.

 
I am SO proud of this shot.  It's my attempt at using a leading line.  This was just a random building on Southhampton Row.  Everything here has incredible architecture, even the chips shops!

 
This is one of the many squares in London...there are tons of markets and stalls, as well as street performers who actually have to audition to have the privilege of performing there.  The outcome?  They're an excellent source of free entertainment.

 
Lastly, the British Museum.  Haven't actually made it inside yet, but it's free and super close to where we live so I'm sure I'll be spending lots of time here.
Friday means...FISH FRY!  Will be checking out one of the acclaimed chip shops for dinner tonight...Sunday is a trip to Greenwich!
