This is a visit we postponed from last October when we were supposed to be seeing Sheryl Crow at the Albert Hall but Jane wasn't well enough to travel.

This goose and goslings (variety unknown) were unphased by the people passing by.

Apart from the two shows we saw on the Friday and Saturday evenings (reviewed separately) we walked (3.5 miles) to Tate Modern on Saturday morning and wandered around the <a href="http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/exhibition/ey-exhibition-sonia-delaunay" target="_blank">Sonia Delaunay</a> exhibition which was really interesting as she started off as a portrait artist and then went through abstract art into fabric design and fashion. A fascinating journey for a woman in the early 1900s.

Sunday morning, with a few hours to spare before catching the train back we went for a walk to <a href="http://www.portobelloroad.co.uk/" target="_blank">Portobello Road</a> and wandered around looking at junk and stuff we had no intention of buying.
