This was the path I took (some of it on the Tube, some walking), in case you're curious. Trust me my feet were really tired at the end! Here are some of the fun things I saw:
You may or may not know this, but cake-making isn't my full time job. By day, I'm an animator and illustrator, so when I saw these dolls, it piqued my interest.
I guess they're inspired by Glen Keane... cool!
Now here are some random street photos, in the Covent Garden area:
Oh yeah! Living statue!
Yes, that is a man, dressed as a dog, under a table...
Found this restaurant that makes nothing but hot piping pies! OMG I LOVE pies!!!
I had one with sweet potato and cheese, they even gave me a vegetarian gravy to go with it! (I'm not vegetarian, but I try to be some days ;)) I'm going there again for sure!
I've noticed owls are a popular motif here. And as I work for a company called RocketOwl, I just had to snap this pic, for my co-workers :D
ON TO DAY 9
