On Wednesday the summer au pair F (I'll just call her F on this blog), who left today, and I went to Kingston. It's so beautiful there, you just have to go there if you ever get the chance! Also, it's great for stationary shopping!
You should totally go and have some lunch at "Greggs" if you're there. It's freshly made every day and not expensive at all- like a cheaper version of Pret-A-Manger.
Also there's a bookstore called Waterstones (I think) where if you buy a book you get the second one for half the price, which is a bargain! ("Words cannot do justice to the pleasures of a good bookshop. Ironically."- Waterstones)
There are a lot if shops in Kingston but that's not why I like it so much. It's just so cute and peaceful.
After that we went to London. We went to a book market next to the London Eye where you can get books for like £2-£4 (I think you already figured that I really like books), made a photo with the Blackfriars Bridge in the background (every Clockwork/The Infernal Devices reader WILL KNOW!) and we went to Covent Garden! (That's actually my favourite place ever! You gotta go to Bens Cookie's, they have a store in Covent Garden and they make the most delicious cookies that your mouth will ever have the pleasure to taste!)
So as you may it may not have figured, we were pretty exhausted after such a long day!
Oh and btw, I didn't plan to buy anything that day except for an Oyster card and some food, but I still ended up with a few things:
A little turquoise trash bin for my room , 2 books from that bookstore I told you about ("We were liars" and "Fangirls", I really wanna know what all the hype is about with these books), and these:
So yeah, I think that's all I wanted to say.
I'm gonna have a day off tomorrow so I'll be going to Kingston again, just exploring the area a bit.
