Shopping Oxford Street Style

Tuesday 24th May

So on Tuesday we took a sightseeing break and visited Oxford Street for some shopping. Having been here once before I kind of knew what to expect, but was still overawed by the number of shops. To be honest though, its basically clothes and souvenirs with the odd different shop.

We managed to get slightly lost in Selfridges of London while looking for food (slightly less scary than Harrods - probably because it doesnt have three rooms of handbags!).

Bought some stuff in M&S, had a nice pub lunch, and then walked the length and breadth of the street. Stopped in at Hamleys toy shop (felt a bit Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in the lower floors) and tottered off home. Was tempted by the Apple store, but the prices are the same if not more than in NZ.

All I can say is shopping for hours = sore feet!
