Football at Wembley

Yesterday we went to the Camden Markets. It was a bit rushed and we didn't get to spend as much time there as we would have liked as we had to get back to the hotel to prepare for the England vs Belgium game at Wembley. The markets are pretty cool and bargains are everywhere. And the setting, in the old Horse Stables/Hospital, was very cool.



We returned to the hotel early and then made our way to Wembley for the game. Traffic was insane in both directions due to road closures for the Jubilee, the game and a car accident in Dagenham on the return journey, and it cost $NZ220 in taxis! But we've been pretty good with our money so far so it is all part of the experience (says the guy with Scottish blood in his veins). The game itself was a tight affair and I think England were lucky to win 1-0, with the Belgians giving the Poms a good run for their money. We all had a great time and can say we've been to Wembley to watch an England game.
