1st day in London .. Notting Hill

July 21st, 2007 by Administrator

22 July 2007

Arrive London at about 545 am and arranged a taxi to Canary Wharf to meet up Rex and Melody. The transportation took about 45 min and cost us GBP50! If you think that is expensive wait till you get a normal taxi from the taxi rank which will be about GBP100! At least we got a Volvo and the driver wears a suit and tie.

Went to Portobello market for breakfast. 2 croissant and coffee cost us about GBP12 which was about HK$190!! Not that many shops opened on Sun so prob going on a Sat will be better.

We then head to Camden Market and did a bit of walking through antique shops. Did more walking to seven dials and Tottenham Court Road. Although sale was going on but things were still expensive. Went back home for a movie and then had a light dinner at west India Quay. The beer selection was awesome especially Korenburg Blanc 1664.

Decided to call it a day.
