The Holy Grail of Shopping

We had to go to London last week to take care of some things. It just so happened that where we had to go was right next to Knightsbridge. Knightsbridge is home to some of the finest shopping in London, including Harrods. It has to be the biggest store I have ever seen.
You could literally survive in this place for weeks at a time. If they don't have it you probably don't need it. To the left you can see Yankee Girl standing in front of the entrance. She likes to think that the green traffic arrow pointing in the direction of the store is an omen. Sort of like some some sign that she is meant to go in and shop. Since we were pressed for time, we managed to escape with only a minor hit to the bank account, but I have a feeling that won't be my last trip.
Since we were there, we felt obliged to go and see the Dodi and Diana memorial. I can now say I have seen it, and therefore certainly don't need to go back. It was just a little weird and creepy for us.
As a side note, for you ER fans, YG swears she saw Thandie Newton going into the Millennium Hotel in Knightsbridge. Unfortunately I missed it.

I am truly envious. I didn't make it to Harrods on my London trip. I would love to return for a longer visit. Can't wait to find out what you purchased. Mom
