Danielle in Sweden: London

Saturday; market and afternoontea
The next morning we went up early and ate an English breakfast with toasts, bacon, eggs and tomatoes. Then we were ready to go out for a walk in the city. First we took one of these typical red double-decker buses and hopped off near the Hidepark. To David's pleasure we found the Lady Diana's playground, which was, if I discribe it with David's words "en lekplats med klass" (eng. a playground that is in a class of it's own). David, Ylva and I walked around and tested the many different constructions and installations. There was a lot to discover and we had fun. Anyway, we had to go further after a while and walked down the streets until we reached a market. They sold fruits, accesoires, clothes, freshly prepared food, and many many other funny or weird things. We stoped here and there and watched all the people walking around and doing their business. This also made us hungry, so we were looking for a restaurant and finally found a Spanish one. Then it started to rain, as it is usually in whole England, but we're fortunately not out of sugar, so it didn't kill us. David was a bit bored, therefore we decided to have a look into the gigantic m&m store. It was amazing to see on how much things you can put a m&m logo. Shirts, ties, shorts, pens, pillows and mugs are just a few examples. But the most important part of the store were of course the m&ms their self. You could buy them in every single colour you can imagine. Inside the store was also a very huge crowd of people, therefore we decided to just buy some few things and go out again. We also didn't want to be late, so that we have enough time to go back to the hotel and change clothes or whatever before we went to a high-end hotel restaurant for afternoontea. This was really great! I felt like a very important person in this comfortable chair and with all the small but delicious sandwiches and desserts. When we were finished after maybe 2 hours, all the stores or museums were already closed, so we just walked full and confident to the hotel. We knew, the next day is going to be busy as well.
