Kings Road, Chelsea

As the major activity of the trip has been completed - buying The Dress - we were able to have a nice relaxing start to our Monday morning. Firstly Lisa and I called Connor (our ex-next door neighbour) for his birthday back in Australia - Happy 12th Birthday Connor! After talking to both Connor and Caitlin we tidied up after coming back from our trip and then headed out.

Today we ventured to Kings Road in Chelsea - a street lined with various boutiques and cafes. Kings Road is Chelsea's main road. It was once a private road - used only by royalty seeking access to Hampton Court. On our walking tour today, we started off at Sloane Square. There are lots of funky little shops selling unique homewares and accessories, as well as a few chain stores lining the street the whole way. This street is synonymous with fashion, and there are also many independent designers such as Vivien Westwood and Karen Millen. We wandered up the street and then stopped at the Cornish Pasty Shop for some lunch.

We made our way down the other side of the street back towards Sloane Square. Lisa made some purchases from Baby Gap for their friends who are having a baby - the outfits were so cute! And then we caught the tube home. Lisa is playing netball tonight at Chalk Farm so Ben is making an early dinner; one of his signature dishes - italian style chicken with parma ham. I am getting very spoilt at Hotel ala Lisa&Ben!
