Camden markets...by boat

On the way home from Paris, Jessie had sat next to someone who had had his mum visit London recently. He mentioned that you could take canal boat tours of Little Venice. So Jessie did the research, and that Saturday we went to the market by boat. Besides the freezing cold, it was a fascinating way to see another side of London (including traveling underneath various parts of London not too far from our house). Apparently the boats travel all the way to Canary Wharf - if it didn't take half a day, it would be a pleasant alternative to the tube!

Some of the houses lining Regent's Canal are incredible...

It isn't called 'Little Venice' for nothing - there are dozens of people living along the canal
