After a "rest day" on Thursday we were ready to hit the city of London again. Rachael had told us of a cool little market to visit close to the Tate, called Borough Market.
We left the Underground at London Bridge station and quickly spotted the market - situated next to a cathedral and half under the railway bridge it makes it quite unique to say the least. Only open on Friday & the weekends, makes it a very popular spot. Little stalls / shops selling anything and everything, beautifully presented and with free tasters!! We hunted around for a while, bought some smoked pepper powder... and then set off for the Tate vowing to return for lunch.
My first visit to the Tate modern was an incredible experience - housed in an old power station, the exhibition halls are huge with wide open spaces. Incredible to see world renowned works close up with all the delicate brush strokes. Have to admit, some things in the Tate Modern is just a bit weird though
Back at Borough Market we had lunch and ended it all down with a Baileys - chocolate - cheese cake!!
We ended the night with a true braai at home, pap included!!
