Day 3 - Spring in Kensington London UK

There is this incredible app from the UK government that allows you to type in your FROM and TO places and get transportation options that include the Underground/rail/bus and intriguingly to me, bikes.  Checking bikes gave me "hire bikes" as an option.  Checking that showed me exactly where to pick up bikes from our fab organic breakfast restaurant, Down to Earth, and how many were available at that moment, an "easy" non-busy street route, approximate time of trip, and where to park the bikes and how many spots were currently available there.

We inserted our credit card into the machine after a very yummy but very slow breakfast (our waiter wouldn't take a tip) and received two of the following

There was a bit of a learning curve to biking on the left side of the road, but it was a fun trip to the Victoria and Albert museum.  We viewed the Japan, China, and Buddhist collections as well as the metal group, the fashion group and this wonderful, mammoth Chihuly 

Had fun fantasizing about how they mailed that to the museum.

Had a great tea in the gardens and watched the clouds until we figured out it might rain, so we hit the bike dispenser again.

Dinner was at this wonderful tapas/

gastropub where almost everyone was half our age.  Great food!  And charming English babies and tots. A fun day.

Besides the polar fleece coat from yesterday's blog, a Susan Sez find in Madison, WI, I wore these separates

I made the tshirt from a Gayfeathers fabric in a vogue pattern that I blogged about last year(it's also great of stripes) .  Ponte jeans are Jones NY.  Mary Janes are Naot and socks are J Jill.  Can you tell my colors are Navy as a neutral and aqua for accents?
