London 2019 Day Two

This was a laid-back kind of day. SKT and AW took a train south to visit their friends and spend the day, so we were out and about on our own. Kris wanted to finish of her list of things for the kids, so we took the bus to Oxford Street, Piccadilly Street, and Knightsbridge. Clearly, we love the busses. Lunch at GBK was as good as ever. We were back at the flat for a couple of hours relaxing before walking down Palace Gardens to Wagamama on Kensington High Street. My choice was tasty, but I should always get my favorite. New is good, but not as good as the chicken katsu curry. Home now, blogging and enjoying a bowl of sticky toffee pudding with custard.

 Cold, rainy, and blustery day

 Sheltered and waiting for #94

 Marks and Sparks on Oxford Street

 Piccadilly Street with Fortnum and Mason in the rear

 Kris has something to show me

 Caught another bus across from the Burlington Arcade

 The most posh butcher shop ever: Harrods

 That's us on the screen of the bus that took us to lunch

 No need to stop -- you can see it from the bus and I 
have a model of the door anyway

 Blue cheese burger with sweet chili relish and 
skinny fries: delicious

 My view from the corner of the sofa next to the heater

 The street from Diana Cafe, past the Champion Pub, to the domed
 green house on the corner of Palace Court

 Kensington Palace Gardens on our walk to dinner

 Wagamama with a view of Kensington High Street

 The place was hoppin'

 Gyoza

 Coconut-flavored curry for me

 And under that salad some tonkatsu is hiding from Kris

 Kensington Palace and gates (mostly for show and newish)

 I have always wanted to see the spring bulbs popping in 
Kensington Gardens, but this is the first time I have
been in London in the spring

Sticky toffee pudding with Madagascar vanilla custard

We have no plans, so we will see what happens tomorrow. That's all for now.

OXO

I myself am good and over Pret. It's never really that good anymore. And are you at the same flat where we were???

Yes ma'am. I didn't respond last time you asked, because, unlike Instagram, you don't get any notification of a response. BUT I did post a photo of the green door at #16 Linden Gardens I hoped that would answer you question.
