London 5 : Piccadilly Circus to Covent Garden
26th April 2008

After the customary photos of Eros, I walked up Shaftesbury Avenue and cut through into Gerrard Street and Chinatown - after this I wasn't really sure where to head for, but in the end I followed the crowds through some narrow streets and came out opposite Covent Garden Station. The area around the Market was absolutely packed, and, tiring fast, I decided to call it a day and made for Strand to pick up a return red bus to Euston
