Finally a Nice Weekend!

We had BEAUTIFUL weather in London over the weekend!  You may have to take that with some perspective because the high was only about 45.  But compared to the last few weeks, the sun was shining and it seem absolutely delightful!  Saturday morning I enjoyed a nice run in Hyde Park with the running club I've been joining. 

After the run I took a long walk home through part of the Portobello Road Market.  The Market is quite famous and a major tourist destination on the weekends when the antiques dealers come out.  They also have a section with fresh fruits stands, as well as ethnic foods, baked goods and flowers.  It is only about 2 blocks from my apartment to the food section - lucky me! 





I wrapped up my day on Sunday with a concert at Royal Albert Hall.  The London Philharmonic played all Tchaikovsky music - Romeo & Juliet, the Nutcracker, 1812 Overture and the Piano Concerto.  The building was amazing and so was the music!
