so beautiful, so colorful

After Brick Lane we headed to the also famous flower market in London. Two entire streets daily are dedicated to the flower market. There was everything from palm trees and pansies to tulips and gerber daises - literally every plant and flower out there. It was absolutely beautiful and a sight to see! I thought I'd seen most of the flowers in London with the flower vendors on most corners of the London streets but I was definitely wrong.
What made our walk through the flower market even more entertaining was that it being our last stop of the day the vendors cut their prices by that time in hopes of not having to take home everything they brought. That being said, they were all yelling prices and thrusting beautiful bouquets at us. It was funny at first but by the end of the first street I was about to throw the flowers at them haha Definitely an experience and very small part of an incredible city...i love london.
