We went for a walk early one Sunday morning before the shops were open.
It was pleasant as there was a nip in the air and the sky was clear blue.
I loved this little Art Deco shop and would have been fun to take a look around it.
The fountain playing in Sloane Square
The ornate entrance to this building is fabulous.

I hope that you are enjoying your weekend.
It is raining here today and so much for going to pick the olives off our tree which are ripe and ready to be harvested.
Maybe tomorrow might be a better day for it.
I look forward to coming to visit you all.
Hugs
Carolyn
