London day 2

Since this is my 3rd trip to London, I decided to enjoy the city by foot rather than going to musems and such, as I have already done that. I ventured to the northern border of Regent's Park, where there is a canal (yes, London has canals) that forms a natural border between the city center and the rest of it (Zone 1 and Zone 2 if you are riding the tube). Along one stretch of the canal are these amazing mansions, that from what I gather are owned by Saudi princes. (look how nice in the photo)

From there I walked to Oxford and Bond to see the Gap UK flagship store. I got a little lost along the way, but it was worth it. First of all, their product is completely different, espeically the men's wear. They are much more daring with the men's product, stuff that would never fly in Gap US. I talked to the people working there and told them I was director of financial planning for Gap US women's (sorry Kathrin) and they all wanted to talk to me.

And above is the main display in the entrance of the new fall product at Gap UK (Steven, take notes).

This posting was made at 10:14pm at gate A64 of the Zurich International Airport. God bless Wi-Fi.
