27 Apr 11 Walking in Chiswick

I always enjoy strolling along the Chiswick High Road.

A great variety of stores and stalls along here, from major national, and international chains, to small family run independents. I could spend many hours walking around here, and always find something new.

If you get tired of walking, on a fine day you may care to sit for a while on one of the many benches in the area, or go sit in Turnham Green. Alternatively hop on one of the many frequent buses when you’ve had enough, and go to many other areas of either suburban or central London.

There are many places to eat and drink. Traditional English pubs, European style bistros, and brassieres, to Asian Cuisine, there is surely something for everyone’s taste and pocket.

02 Aug 08 Farmers Market

We were going to go beach walking with a group today, but it went pear-shaped, so we ended up downtown instead, at the Farmers Market. We were planning to head there after the beach walk, so simply got there earlier.

It made a nice change to do this, as we’re both usually working on a Saturday.

We bought some fresh fruit and vegetables, took those back to the car, and then walked around the stalls. We got a great Lamb Gyro each for lunch for $10 for the two, and some freshly squeezed lemonade to wash it all down.

Took a walk down King Street, and then ended up having coffee in City Lights in Market Street. After that, we were strolling back towards the car, when we found the new location of O’Hara & Flynn on Meeting Street.
