a delight to the senses

this morning Panu suggested we go check out Camden Lock Markets. i was still half asleep and thus muttered something about "cold" and "sleep in" and kindly asked him to "give me a valium i'm going back to bed"... but alas, the evil part of me, the part which resembles an over-excited puppy yapping at your ankles, won the battle yet again and off we went, booted, scarved and hatted.

and am i glad we did!

Camden Lock Markets (note, not to be confused with the regular Camden markets located down the road) turned out to be a labyrinth of amazing colours, textures, sounds, smells - every imaginable everything to tantalize the senses. I could have wandered through the intertwining alleys all day (and i shall return to do just that), finding new and hidden rooms just when you think you've explored the whole market. Truly a hidden gem.
