London

I was in London from the 21st to 3st May. I was a bit disappointed, well blame it on my own expectations. Everything I had planned to do didn't work out. The special ice cream shop I wanted to visit had closed down, the two musicals I most wanted to see were sold out on the three nights I went to get tickets, and I couldn't find the tea my friend asked me to buy back. Okay enough.

The trip itself was pretty good. The museums don't fail. Also meeting up with the fellowship there was good. There were a couple of highlights. I won't go into much detail since London is, well, London.

The good shops are all in the museums

I went back to Camden market. The atmosphere of the place seems to have died down a little, particularly in the stables market. The Locke market was pretty lively though. I thought the shopping there would be good, but it was so so. The food market is the place to be. Behold!

What is this ordinary looking burger?

Zebra meat. It tasted quite sweet actually. It has a nice fragrance, and a slightly pungent after-smell. Sad to say my other meals were not even half as exciting.

I also got to Cambridge. It's a nice place, but a quite the expensive, tourist town. Shops and ice cream carts everywhere. And many people who were evidently NOT erudite/ posh professors, students and co. Despite all the tourist action going on Cambridge looks like a boring place to study. Am I being bitter? Perhaps only slightly. Not saying it's an ugly place though, just boring. Behold!

Who knew punting was a thing with smart, wealthy undergraduates?

Not representative old building

Representative building and amount of bicycles

A less touristy street

That's all really. If there's one thing I've learnt from my trip to London is BOOK YOUR TICKETS TO MATILDA EARLY.  Bye now.

Not Cambridge but still a nice photo
