Aujourd’hui we decided to head south to visit Leicester Square (Chinatown! And the Odeon!) and Trafalgar Square. Feeling lazy, we Tubed it down to Leicester Square and emerged into a flurry of people packing up the Moon Day decorations. Despite being sorely tempted by the Chinese lanterns, we put our blinkers on (something we are now very accustomed to doing : P) and headed on. Chinatown, although beautiful, RED and ornate is VERY unsuitable for vegetarians : ( so we moseyed on down to Trafalgar Square. Amid a shouting match between campaigners, we soaked in the very London-y atmosphere and successfully avoided the pigeons ; ) Feeling rather skint by this point, we dug out the trusty (pink!) A-Z to plot a new route back and decided to sacrifice the Tube fare home for a muffin from the famous Drury Lane. HOWEVER, we were shocked and appalled to discover how grievously we had been misled: there is no muffin man down Drury Lane : (
Next time: Farmer’s Market II and counting the bandstands in Hyde Park…good times : )
