Camden Markets, London

I never knew this place until my boss came to work one day with a satchel bag i couldn't take my eyes off. When i asked where he got the bag, he said Camden market, London and the rest is history.

The main reason we flew to London is to get my bag :p, but i got more than that!. It turns out Camden market is a shoppers paradise, many stalls and shops that sell dresses, crafts, shoes, foods, souvenirs, vintage items, etc but i must admit some stalls sell tacky stuff aswell.

Amongst all the stalls, the food stalls were my favorite. So many different kinds of foods from many different countries i had difficulty in choosing what i would like to eat. At the end i had a Vietnamese chicken lemongrass and hubby had a crocodile burger. yes! a crocodile burger!!

Camden Market consist of several markets actually, we walked between several of them without even realizing it. It was only i got home and started to research that i discovered this.






If you intend to go to London, you really should consider Camden Markets. We enjoyed it so much and already decided to go back as i am sure you will once you have been there!.

Things found inside pre loved books

Its fascinating to see what people use as a bookmark, and these are some of the things i found inside the books. I think its better to put something in to mark the page rather than dog ear the page (that really annoys me!). So far i never found any banknotes though :p.

But it still really excites me when i buy a pre loved book and find something like this or an inscription inside.
