Covent Garden

After the National Gallery, we walked past St. Martin in the Fields and had lunch at a brasserie down the street, a kir royale and steak frites for her, and a pastis and salade nicoise for me. Despite the grandeur of London, we're already thinking about the glories of Paris. We walked back home, passing through Covent Garden and snapping a few pix.

Next door to the brasserie, and above (we ate outside) was this
old pub sign of interest, the "green man and French horn"

Sic transit, Gloria

Looking back to St. Martin's, where we once had an interesting

dinner and heard a memorable concert

Theaters and shows seemingly on every street

Street decor

Street scenes

In one of the market halls at Covent Garden

Entertainment on the square

Opening on to the large antiques market (forget Portobello)

A study in how packaging has changed

And more theaters and shows...Drury Lane

A pub where efforts at greening-up are underway
