quick.stroll.in.the.city

the rain finally ceased. this evening is dry but chilly. you still have no urge to venture further than the city but will probably do so tomorrow if the weather remains dry. you have a very important presentation to do tomorrow afternoon, it's your first session with the client, you need to make the good impression.

you went out for a stroll, not far, just the radius between the bank and monument underground station.  and there are pleasant discoveries. directly opposite your "home" is this leadenhall market, with many people still drinking in the pub...

 further down as you turn left, you enter cornhill street...
 there are plenty of boutiques, the window displays are great and elegant...
 these shops must be there for the busy bankers who have no time to shop....
and you discover laduree, yes laduree!! literally just by your doorstep, 200m away from you... you don't need to go to green park or harrods for your macaron craves...
 it's really tempting....
and the shop is still open late in the evening... may be you will pick up some macarons on your way home one of these weeks that you are here... after all, there's no hurry when laduree is just by your doorstep...
