Food, Glorious Food

May 26

...and you thought I was joking, huh?

:)

Borough Market-

You

are a glorious place.

And it's not just the 

food,

glorious food,

oooh no.

It's the...

...the.... 

...the...

(The Grinch!)

everything.

I love the massive amounts of people,

the bulging eyes when people see a hunk of bread on the counter,

the samples,

the freshly squeezed juices,

and even

the silly tourists there who take pictures of 

everything

just like me.

Like these yummy snacks I just bought.

I couldn't just buy

honey cashews and 

chocolate

cinnamon

covered

almonds.

Absurd.

I had to take a picture and document such an 

exciting moment!

Or like this time I saw this sign

and all I could think of was Aerosmith

and me singing into a spatula

while my dad plays the air guitar.

Okay now,

that was probably the peak of my 

tourist-ness

during this whole study abroad

that day.

Other photo worthy moments of the day...

Eating a kangaroo burger

...well that was sure tasty

and quite the experience.

Taking pictures

just because the Union Jack is present.

 It's Jubilee Weekend so flags are everywhere!

Or even meaning to take a picture

of my scrumptious raspberries...

but not remembering until they're all pretty much gone.

Maybe that's why my smile is so big,

because I ate them all.

Food for thought...

:)

Next we went to Harrods.

It was more of a museum than a store to me.

The prices were just so out of reach

that I felt like I couldn't touch anything.

...

You could even say the prices went to

Infinity and Beyond!

 Yes, he is completely built of Legos.
I wonder if Buddy the Elf could do that.

That place is like...a whole new world. 

I also decided to be clever

(yes, decided-it doesn't happen naturally)

and make it look like I was in their magazine.

Trickster.

Later on I went to the Champion pub

with my buddies Trent, Romm and MaCall.

We watched the England vs. Norway football game

and England won.

Then to celebrate our victory

we all sipped through individual straws

from a single cup of

our non alcoholic

diet coke

beverage...

at the same time.

Seal of the friendship. 

It was nice to do some of the local stuff today. 

I like being,

pretending to be

British.
