Harrods of London


Despite the rain, shoppers flock into Harrods, the largest department store in Europe.  Located in the borough of Kensington and Chelsea in London, the store has over 1 million square feet of selling space and over 330 departments.  It also has a strict dress code, wherein security reserves the right to refuse entry to anyone inappropriately dressed or unkempt.  Fortunately, I passed the dress code and soon found myself sauntering into the ice cream parlour, where I had the Harrods' Special - vanilla, chocolate, caramel, and strawberry ice cream with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, strawberries and bananas for (only!?) 19.95 pounds ($30)
