My Fair London – Holland Park

Friday 8 July 2011

It’s Friday everyone! I’m off to Greece at the end of next week so my weekend plans consist of packing, waxing, buffing and getting myself ready for a proper summer holiday by the beach and/or pool! It was only on the off-chance that I happened to take these photos in Holland Park earlier in the week (no, you are not dreaming, those are blue skies). Just a short walk from the more grungy Notting Hill and I found myself transported into the very posh and clean area of Holland Park. As I snapped away photos I wondered how many times my house could fit into the house below?

  7. Beautiful houses! I don't even want to know how much they cost or how high the rent is. I so wish the weather would have stayed put since then, but I'm sure you'll have sunny blue skies in Greece!

  14. i want to say something random like 'isn't holland park where that one movie/musical/play was based?' i have no idea what i'm basing that on, just a feeling

    but exciting about your holiday to greece! it's definitely great for you to be living in europe and have so many distinct destinations at your doorstep, it's not like that here in Oz

    enjoy!!!
