London

So after 2 days of sitting around Sharyn's and Patrick's flat, feeling miserable, I thought it was time I do my first post.

On Saturday we ventured out early to join the crowds at the Portobello Markets. Maybe I should be thankful I have this dreaded cold, as I'm sure I could have eaten myself sick with the variety of good food. 1st stop an apple strudel for Ben and for me, crepes with sugar and lemon (for my throat). After what felt like hours wondering through the interesting stalls we walked away with a picnic lunch, which we enjoyed in Sharyn’s and Patrick’s garden.

Since then we haven’t done much at all, so I've included a few other photos of the past week:
