Just like the movie.... Almost


"I'm just a girl, standing in front of a boy, asking him to love her."  Is one of my most favorite parts of the movie Notting
Hill. It's romantic, it's gushy and it just makes me sigh. I love this movie! It's got Hugh grant, comedy, Hugh grant, a fun storyline..... Did I mention Hugh Grant yet? 
As I wandered the streets of London with a fellow intern we both decided to go to Notting Hill since we had just watched this movie 2 days ago. We both love Hugh... I mean the movie.😉
So we made our way to Notting Hill on the tube and this is what we discovered....
(This is Hughs  brother's house. It exists and a family actually lives in it. And people take pics of it all the time and we were caught taking this pic by one of the families friend. Lol)

(This is the market that Hugh Grant walks through when he goes to work at his travel book store)

(This is the book store...um... The location of where the book store was. It is now a souvenir shop)

(This is the bookshop that inspired Hughs book shop. And yes they don't just sell travel books. They do in fact sell all types. You can even buy paper cut out mask of Hugh Grant or Julia Roberts)

(This hangs above the travel store that inspired Hughs book shop)

(This is the door to Hughs home....which is now a nail salon. And not quite like the movie, except the blue door)


Well not all is as it seems but thanks to google we got a free guided tour of Notting Hill. I'd say it was a good day.
