Broadway market

http://www.broadwaymarket.co.uk/www.broadwaymarket.co.uk/home.html
London Fields にあるBroadway market、ふつうのマーケットに比べて小さい規模で人もそこまで居なかった。雰囲気はFlower marketに似てるかな。若いオシャレさんが沢山いて、夏になるとlondon fields(公園）にはピクニックする人で埋めつくされてるとのこと。今年の夏はこの周辺に引っ越そうと思っているからそしたらしょちゅう行けるな。

近くにはカフェや本屋、雑貨屋が並んでて絶対面白い。その日はイタリアンのお店でパスタとリゾットを食べたよ。最近はリゾット作りにハマっていたけど本物のシェフが作るリゾットはやっぱり何倍も美味しかった。

今日はマーケットに出店していたHandmadeの化粧品を買ったよ。Honey, Rose, Geraniium, Lavenderなどなどすべてナチュラルなものから作られているのだと。イギリスの化粧品は使うのが怖かったけどこれはdry skinの私の肌にもとっても合う。クリームは固めで好き。

day three in Venice

restrant: AL DOSE

http://maps.google.com/maps/place?cid=327473495345072829&q=AL+dose+venezia&hl=ja

This trip is short time using just 3days off so very quickly past as I thought. The last day sun appeared & give us a much of energy than last 2 days. I think about that I want to explore the place where is hidden or rooted rocal all the time. I believe that nothing special area for the people living there is special for me. So I walked around out of central, south west in Venice.

One of most important purpose was Bar which has many wines from Italy or some are from Venice and some kind of Tapas. The Bar is called Cantine del vino, photo in above. I had a glass of "spiritz" and a few tapas firstly. I saw many neighbors drinks it.That was a bit bitter. And then had a sparkling wine "Prosecco", it was a dry wine. I really like dry wine so lovely! Normally people drink it at night time, after 5 I think but I did it around 2 pm. Despite afternoon but many people came to there and had some tapas and wines inside bar and beside canal. I absolutely come over there again! love there.

I was very sad when I had to leave from my friend's place. It was much worth spending good time.I want to say Thank you very much to my friend

day two in Venice

I took on a bus to Murano on a second day! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murano
Venezian glass is very famous worldwide and there is a lot of studios in Murano. You can find tiles which is made of colourful mosaic glass on the wall, finely tiny dolls and accessories...a plenty of goods everywhere. That is so amazing.

The last picture is at MORION in east venice, it is a squat and people uses this abandoned space for party or meeting for movement. It's located a hidden place in quiet night. I was lucky to know that and had experienced during traveling.

day one in Venice

Since it was very foggy and cold, I was a bit nervouse to see my friend. But I felt I was there consciously when I get through "Ponte" which is built across the canal.I've dreamed about this moment for long time.My friend taught me a few special places out of central and then I went on an adventure!

There are many gondolier who is introducing modestly to ride a gondla for tourists like me but this off season, no customer and many vacant boat, that's really shame. I felt unhappy because I know that the job of Gondolier is prideful and it lasts long tradition since 900 years ago.

To be honest I didn't ride it in this time but I really wanted to do.... so shame...

I found toy carousel! I should have bought it.... miss it.
