Less is more.. or is it? (London, Part 2)

On Sunday I visited the Buckingham Palace, Millennium Bridge and St Paul' Cathedral. Buckingham Palace seemed nice since it is located next to a couple of parks but oh-the-amount-of-tourists around the palace.. I moved on quite quickly. A quick look on the Houses of Parliament and THE clock. From there I headed to St Paul's Cathedral. It would have been nice to attend to a mass but it was over an hour to the next one so I just drank some coffee in Cafe in the Crypt below the cathedral. There I met an older lady who was talking to her lady friend that she's going to celebrate her daughter's birthday on the following day. I mentioned I have also birthday the same day and ended up hearing a whole history about her children. Since Millennium Bridge was close to the cathedral I took a look at it and few photos as well.

My main goal on Sunday was to see the lego exhibition The Art of the Brick at Old Truman Brewery. So I took a bus to Liverpool Street and walked from there. Luckily so because I found the most interesting area around Old Spitalfield Market and Brick Lane. The area seemed to be filled with my kind of people and things to my liking. Hand-made, unique and vintage clothes and shoes everywhere. And live music to my liking. I stumbled along the Brick Lane and saw this musician named Warren Cahill play his guitar on the street. Go check his Youtube videos and Facebook page.
I also saw the exhibition and I'd like to send  thank yous to the young man at the entry checking those tickets. After the exhibition I walked on and ended up to Absolute Vintage and bought myself a pair of shoes.

Monday was my birthday and my feet were killing me. If I had walked in three days over 30 kilometers Monday was the day when I didn't move far from the hotel. I visited The Brunswick and bought some clothes and accessories to myself. I sat in the park and headed back to hotel to read the book I bought from Skoob Books, Ten stories about smoking. Packed my bags and sorted out how and when I need to get to the airport next morning. In the early evening I went around the corner, ate some Spanish meat board at The Queens Head and then back to hotel.
