Camden market and puppet show failure.

I purchased some cards by total kismet. "50 London walks with kids". Card 13 little Venice. A beautiful neighborhood with a canal that runs through it. Hopped off the tube after a detouring due to a closed stop. The tube isn't that bad with help from the station staff. P is freaked out when we have to squish through the gate on one oyster card. Kids under 10 don't have to pay for the tube.

We exited warwick station and followed the cards directions, found a charming gate leading down to the puppet show.. Which was closed..wah wah whaaa. Amazingly no tears, we found a canal cafe and had lunch.




O and Dennis.



Solving all the worlds issues.

We found a 'canal taxi' and with a quick trip to the potty we boarded and headed out - canals in London who knew?




The seats..




The houseboats ..







The taxi stopped at the zoo (good info for next time). But we continued on to Camden market. What a place. If you're missing a hippie, I know where they might be...




And how do you know you're traveling with a grandparent? No mom or dad in their right mind would buy a poodle pillow.




Or crowns of flowers.. P had Noni's number and it started with "oh please Noni who I love and adore".

The Camden market used to be a horse market and stables. Hence all the horse stuff. Now it's a vintage market and amazing food stalls were all around. Dennis was bummed we had just eaten. There was lots of meat on sticks.





We stayed until around 6 and headed home, some how got on a chalk street tube station and headed back to Waterloo. We've found a great take away baguette place in the rail station and picked up dinner.



Forgot to show you a picture from bistro george's menu



"wormed homemade foccasia" hahaha ah..hilarious. Sadly they were out of it.

Tomorrow looks like Kew Gardens and the Wizard of Oz in the theater.
