Kenny and I spent our weekend in London, and we had absolutely no plans until Sunday evening. I cooked a whole red snapper on Friday, and we just enjoyed an evening at home. On Saturday we headed up to Little Venice, which is a canal area in London. It looks more like Amsterdam to me with little houseboats tied up on the canal, but I suppose calling this area Little Amsterdam would have very different implications. Below are a few pics so everyone can see how cute this area is:)
After lunch we did something very touristy- we took a canal boat from Little Venice to Camden. I didn't like Camden all that much, but it was still fun to see something different.
Yes, people live in these little boats!
The rest of the weekend was very relaxing. We grilled jumbo shrimp and zucchini on Saturday night and hosted an out of town friend for dinner last night. We had such a good time that our dinner lasted from 6:15-11:30. Perhaps it isn't the best way to start the week, too much food and wine- and to much cleaning up at the end of the night, but it was still a lot of fun.

Little Venice looks so cool! I stayed in Camden the last time I was in London, and it was a bit too "punk-rock" for me.
The pics are awesome. It's a great trip to rent a canal boat for a vacation. We have found them all over the world.
Looks awesome! I'm so jealous of all you world travelers!
How fun!
I am sooooo jealous that you live in London. I lived there while in University and miss London often. Your photos are amazing. Please do more London posts...pretty please? thanks!

I also wanted to let you know that I nominated you for The Adorable Blogger Award. You can get the details at my blog.

Sigh. I miss London. SO. Much.

How fun! I have never been to that part of London. I'm planning to come for the Olympics next year, so I might need to get some London tips from you. :)
