It is a rainy and muggy and just a ugly day, but we ended up going to Notting Hill Market early in the morning. As soon as we got there the first thing that I noticed was the houses, all painted different colors. Not one house was the same color as each other and the flowers went with the color of each house. I wasn’t sure if they planned it like that or if the town made them do that, but I thought it brought a lot of character to Notting Hill.
As we walked down further that is where all the little shops were outside and inside and there were a few little flea markets that were inside as well. The shops were filled with a variety of things and each one had something different. If you went even further down there were a lot more indoor shops and the one thing I liked about this place was that you could bargain for a cheaper price.
Later that night we went to Leicester square to walk around and take pictures. We found out that this was the place to be at night because there was a ton of people. Either people were just walking around just looking at everyone else or going to the strip of bars and clubs. It was very interesting to see the night life and their night life was crazy.
