Kensington Palace is wonderful. When DH and I were there in May 2002 for the ASL golden Jubilee, I talked him into going. He loved the architecture and art works and I loved the Queen's gowns and some of Diana's well known ones that were on display (Queen's gift to the public for her Golden Jubilee), plus the wedding gowns of the last 4 Queens and current HM - and best of all, the Dressmakers room was open to viewing with all sorts of wonderful tools and cloth and 2 lace pillows.
Portobello Road on a Saturday is fun to do - lots of antiques and food stalls (couldn't get over a 1/4 wheel of brie or camembert for a solitary pound!). Camden market was too 'gothic' for me. Wish I could've gone to the fan museum, but hey, I got to Harrods and Hamleys toy store, where we had our choice of hippos for a certain young hippo collector in the family.
