Visiting Kensington, London - a dreamer's paradise

Kensington, is a very pleasant and convenient place to stay when visiting London. In the immediate area is the Museum of Natuaral History, the Science Museum, Victoria and Albert Museum, Kensington gardens and the Underground station, all easy to walk to. There are plenty of breakfast cafes and restaurants a few pubs and a hotel or three.

But what I like best about Kensington, is the shopping. Not the fashion shops like Prada and Gucci and department stores as in other parts of London, but the shops that to make a purchase one must make an appointment.

Kensington is paradise for dreamers!

What bliss it is to gaze in the windows and view the vehicles such as Mozzerati, Ferrari and Lambourgini! The lines, the colours, the detail... sighhhhhh. And for your young ones, there is the Lambourgini pedal car, which at £299, is guaranteed to have zero emmisions...

After leaving a nose print and steamy circle on the window of each shop, it is now time for visiting the exhibition at Christies. Who needs to visit an art gallery when one can inspect the art at Christies, and entertain the thought that it could be ours to own? Ah, dreams! The movie posters and memorablia! Just the thing for movie fans and dreamers! Also on display was a stunning eclectic collection of leadlight lamps due for an upcoming auction. And then there are the furniture and rare book collections it inspect - they all could be ours to own!

Yes, Kensington is a paradise for dreamers. But wait, there is more at Kensington - see the next blog....
