London, day 3
The final day of the trip was largely consumed by a trip to the eastern parts: the street markets around Liverpool Street beckoned.
The Petticoat Lane market was basically a flea market. Mostly clothes, none of them anywhere near appealing.
Brick Lane, on the other hand, had a lot more to offer. First of all a very good lunch at The Famous Moonlight, a Bangladeshi restaurant at the head of the street. The food was both spicy and plentiful, and an excellent break from the walking. The rest of the street was packed alternately with restaurants, food shops or odd indoor markets.
On the way back to the hotel encountered the only traffic hardship – a ten minute subway delay on account of congestion.
Had no time at Tate Britain except for a brief foray in the shop, the book about Harry Beck successfully purchased.
Took the Heathrow Express back to the airport – the convenience and certainty overweighed the additional cost.
