Our Journey starts at Havant bus station.
Yesterday my fiance and I went out to Portsmouth for some last minute Christmas shopping and I was shopping for some new shoes. Since the German Christmas Market was in the city today, I decided to take some photo’s of my day.
Of course, this being England, our bus was delayed and running 20 minutes late. It’s quite common in England for busses and trains to be late unfortinatly.
This fountain at the start of Portsmouth High Street is a popular meeting place. It's also where my fiance and I first met.
Some preformers doing old Indian kinda music. The are very good and preform in Portsmouth often.
To prepare ourselves for a long day shopping, we went and dined in the Pizza Hut resturant.
a German Porksteak stall. Smells good, but we had already eaten.
The Logo for the market. My fiance and I question Santa's awkward smile here.
More sweets and jellies then you can shake a stick at. Mmmm yum.
A street bar selling German beers.
These were really beautiful pottery items, so pretty.
A small nativity scene, but I don't see baby Jesus' parents.
Such beautiful treats and they smell so sweet. They're chocolate coated biscuits decorated with icing.
This isn't part of the German Market, this donut stand is designed like an old tram and is at the city center all year round.
Gachapon machines. Over here we only get phone charms and crap in them, but I can't resist a hello kitty one. I got the one I circled. It's very cute.
In Portsmouth city center, there is an indoor shopping centre as well as the high street. The decorations inside were nice.
Best toy shop ever. I'm almost 22 but I love the toys this place sells. Brings back childhood memories.
In England we are in recession. This shop is Woolworths and they are closing down because of the recession.
Woolworths went bankrupt and are closing for good. The shelves are bare and all 800 Woolworths stores nationwide are closing by January.
More pretty indoor decorations.
In all my life there has never been a Starbucks in Portsmouth city center, however this year, they have finally invaded. Seems popular but I dislike coffe.
Time at this picture is about 4pm but it's already dark. The market looked pretty with it's lights on in the dark though.
Another old tram shaped food stand, like the Dinky donut stand, this one is also here all year round. This tram sells burgers, hot dogs and drinks.
My fiance and I cross the round and head off to cath our bus home. Bye bye Portsmouth, until another day.
cool pictures, I usually forget to take a camera when I go out places but I’ve been trying to do it more often. Those performers look pretty cool. Do I see uneaten pizza crust? XD I do that so often, either don’t eat it or save it for last.
Lol, that is uneaten Pizza crust XD My fiance and I were getting full. We took the remaining two slices away with us and I ate them at home later.
