London Places: Portobello Road Market

Alice's on Portobello RoadOne day when I was living in England, my flatmates & I decided to jump on the train to London & go check out Portobello Road Market in Notting Hill.

You could spend hours exploring the stalls & shops at Portobello Road, & still not get to the end of it. Flowers, fruit, coffee, old records, & Charles & Diana mugs from 1981.

I was tempted to go crazy buying those tea cups for one pound. One pound! Sadly I had to pass them up. But I did find some pretty silver rings, which I wear everyday now. Oh, & a mug with Winston Churchill's face on it. Seriously, you never know what you'll find at Portobello Road Market.
