Brown Girl in London

Sites from yesterday

Yesterday we did a lot of walking around. After we had breakfast HD and I went looking for cell phones - or mobiles as they're called here. We walked around for about 2 hours in the vicinty of Kings Cross, St. Pancras and Euston tube stations. We didn't find any stores but it was just nice to get an idea of the area. It's really busy - lots of cars and lots of people.

I found the British Library - it's just down the street! So we went in of course - just to look around because it's massive and I had no idea how to actually find the books. That's a picture of the outside.

In the evening we went to Oxford Street - lots of shopping over there - it's a big tourist area. That was cool too and there are again so many people. You can't walk without being jostled. Here we got our cells - here's a pic of mine.

Last night we were able to go online and book some appointments to view flats. So far we have 3 to go view - which we're seeing this afternoon. We're going to Finsbury Park and then Turnpike Lane - I have no idea if these are nice areas but we'll soon find out. Okay, time to go check them out!
