Neal's Yard, Covent Garden

Last Tuesday my roommate and I took advantage of our day off and took to adventuring around London. We decided to explore the area of Covent Garden. The area is full of shops, restaurants, and brick lanes. After wandering for a while we stumbled upon a secret ally called Neal's Yard. After walking down the alley it opens up into a beautiful and colorful courtyard. The design of the courtyard was completely opposite of the rest of Covent Garden. Covent Garden was mostly brick buildings, and Neal's Yard was incredibly bright and colorful with flowers on all of the buildings. I think one of our accomplishments of the day was managing to finish a twenty inch pizza in a restaurant called Home Slice in Neal's Yard. It most definitely was not our intention, but holy cow this pizza was delicious so we figured we would just power through. We walked enough in one day, so we could splurge a little right? We had so much fun seeing this part of London and have gone back since. It's a charming and quaint place in the city.
