The Appels came to visit last weekend. They arrived on Saturday and since we are in market exploration mode we decided to check out Camden Market. It was a bit more punk rockish than we were expecting but it was fun to explore!
Nikki bought this cute beanie... which was good because in the 2 hours we spent at the market we experienced sun, rain, and hail... in intervals! When we got home we were shocked that the sun was back out as we walked out of the tube station... 15 minutes later, once we were safely in our flat, it was thundering and lightening! Gotta love London!
After relaxing at home for a bit we went to the National Gallery to check out a Picasso Exhibition... but we ended up at the National Portrait Gallery looking at old Vogue photos.
This was a street artist's message... constructed out of pennies (or whatever the plural form of pence is).
After a quick Mexican dinner at home we went to the Dominion Theater to see 'We Will Rock You,' a musical based on the music of Queen just like Mama Mia is based on Abba songs!
The show was amazing, everyone except Brad loved it!!! He hates musicals so we wont hold that against him.
On Sunday we went to the annual Oxford vs. Cambridge football game and boat races. We had a great time hanging out... even if the boat race was perhaps the most anticlimactic sporting event I've ever seen!!!

I like that Nicki's beanie matches your scarf. Sounds like you guys had a great time! I'm a tad jealous :-)
