I had been noticing a lot of flowers on pubs around London but this one was the most amazing. It is right down the street from Thomas' aunt and uncle's posh flat in Kensington. I snapped the picture thinking that if pubs had contests for flowers this one would surely win. As it turns out The Churchill Arms was awarded "Boozer in Bloom" at Chelsea Flower Show 2007 because it's fabulous.

Tucked in to a little part of London called the Seven Dials is a small courtyard bordered on all sides by brightly colored buildings. Neal's Yard is a funky escape from the hustle and bustle of Covent Garden. The Yard is hidden away from the main streets and has a cafe, a deli and a bead shop tucked inside.
