All in a Friday afternoon…

Lunch in Covent Garden with a friend
Dash into the National Portrait Gallery to avoid a random rain shower (had my choice between there and the National Gallery)
Explore some pop-up art in Trafalgar Square
Gaze at the view from Hungerford Bridge walking across the Thames
Savour some baked goodies at the Real Food Market behind the Southbank Centre
Before jumping back on the tube to go home
Central London really is wonderful (as are other parts but when it works, it really works. On a rare, warm September afternoon, it REALLY works!)
