The road to Borough Market

This past Thursday my friends and i headed to Borough Market, the largest and/ or oldest open air market in London. so we crossed Millennium Bridge, with St Paul's in the backdrop.
Borough Market is full of free samples of all sorts of foods: cheeses, wines, pastas, candies, chocolates, coffees, teas, desserts. The first vendor we saw was making a sort of seafood and chicken stew concoction. it smelled amazing
Next guy over ran a fish market.
My friend Jill stands in front of a stand full of nuts, chocolate covered dried fruits, and other snacks.
Apple and ale shop!
The jam counter. we tried all of the jams, i brought back an apricot jam with me.
the bread man! he was really nice.
Vegetable stand. better than the packaged stuff i get at the Tesco and Sainsbury near us. Dont think id make the 45 minute trip just got grocery shopping though...
