Saturday in London

Our good friends the Faust family are visiting London and we were so happy to be able to get together for the day! We met in Notting Hill to go to Portobello Market. It's always a madhouse on Saturdays, but the weather was nice and the company great so we had a lovely time. After the market we walked to Holland Park and let the 3 youngest play at the playground while the rest of us chatted. Then we wandered along Kensington High Street and found a Waitrose to get some lunch. We took our lunch to Hyde Park and sat on the grass and enjoyed food and chatting. The 4 youngest went off and played keep away and everyone had a nice relaxing break. The Fausts had tickets for Buckingham Palace so they went off to do that and we rented bikes and ride them all over Hyde Park. A definite must! The bikes were a bit too large for the kids, but they did great. I forgot to take a picture of everyone on the bikes but we ended at Marble Arch so I snapped my favorite 3 there. Overall, a brilliant day!!
