Walk slowly. Don't retrace your steps

We strolled today.  After a long day of cricket watching and celebration we needed a slow day.
So, Fitbits attached, we headed for lunch.  Along the way we took pictures of the Paddington area.

Jen ran out of disposable contacts so she wore her glasses.  I think she looks great in her glasses.
Even with glasses it was hard to read the plaque of this guy.
Let's just say it was Charles Darwin and leave it at that.
 Portabello Road is always good for people watching.
 Why does Jen look angry?  
We had already had our afternoon cocktail, so what's to be angry about?
 We were trying to get a picture of the woman sitting in the cool yellow jacket, but got blocked.
 Jen raising a few quid as a busker.
 Pretty mews houses.
 Space saving rack to hang your bike outside.  
 More lovely houses along our walk.


 This was the worst house on the street, but I love how the decay looks.
I'll use that line when we get back to our house in Newburyport.
 Jennie fits pretty well in London.  
 This Jamaican dude had the biggest hair under his giant hat.  He turned and walked back into the record store when I took this picture.
 My afternoon cocktail at Crazy Homies.

 Strange, hip artwork at Crazy Homies.

One of our rules when out for a stroll is to never retrace your steps.  You see things you might have missed.

There you go.  Sunday's a wrap.
