A Rainy Day in London Town…
Metropolitan Line platforms, Baker Street Tube Station…
I was in Baker Street to get my hair cut, but here’s the queue for the Sherlock Holmes Museum in Baker Street, at about three o’clock this afternoon… 😉
Then it was off to Camden Town for a look around there…
There are several shops in Camden High Street with interesting adornments above…
Tree overlooking Camden Lock…
A food stall beside Camden Lock, with some interesting seating to the right ;)…
Another stall, of very many, at Camden Lock….I bought myself a few Blues CDs nearby…
Some posters in a shop window in Camden High Street that caught my attention as I passed by…
…and back home via Mornington Crescent station, at the southern end of Camden Town…

Goodness me ~ you have been a busy boy today!!
I have been through Camden town a few times and may I say that it looks much prettier when it is lit up! 😉
I didn’t realise there was a Sherlock Holmes museum in Baker Street! 🙂 Obviously a very popular place to visit!
Haha…the plan was actually to get my hair cut and then have a wander through Regent’s Park and up to Primrose Hill to take the day’s pictures there, but the persistent rainfall put paid to that idea, so I opted for Camden Town instead. Camden Town is a bit of a tourist trap in some ways, but it’s popular with quite a lot of Londoners too. I don’t go there much nowadays, but I used to more when I lived at Baker Street in the first half of the 1990s. The Sherlock Holmes Museum isn’t always that busy, and the queue seemed abnormally long this afternoon. There’s also a statue of Sherlock Holmes outside Baker Street station now, which wasn’t there when I was living there, but again, it is quite popular with tourists and their cameras ;)…
So interesting! I love Sherlock Holmes, particularly the latest versions with Robert Downey Jr. and with Benedict Cumberbatch. Though, I did not know that there is a Sherlock Holmes Museum. I learned something new.
Only 20 more hours to go. You almost did it, yizhivika! Congrats! And a big Thank You!
Yes, almost there now, andelieya, although the day counter on this blog is slightly awry, and it’s actually 24 hours longer than it shows ;). I’m a fan of Sherlock Holmes stories and films too, and I have several DVDs with the various cinematic incarnations of Holmes and Watson over the years… :).
You can also find lots of full-length Sherlock Holmes episodes on YouTube, yizhivika. 🙂
Okay thanks, andelieya; I visit YouTube quite often, so I’ll see what’s available on there :).
I lived in London for a time – and I am not typically fond of cities, but how I do miss the neighborhoods, and the Tube! Thank you for sharing.
And thank you for stopping by, and commenting, bussokuseki :). To use an English expression, London’s ‘not everyone’s cup of tea’, but I’ve lived here for thirty years now, and I’ve never regretted moving here for a second ;). Best wishes to you in New England :).
