Central Parks

This may be my favorite walk, not because of what we saw-but because we rented BARCLAYS bikes! I think that is the way to do this walk. The most impressive thing to me was the amount of memorials present in London-Do we have a memorial for "animals lost in battle" in America? In our group we took a little detour and went to look at Buckingham Palace-a lit up at night. We learned alot of things on this walk/ride- most importantly the BARCLAYS returning points for bikes fills up quick, and it might take you an additional 45 minutes, to return your bike.

St. Pauls

 I led this walk

We started off early, to finish this walk before our tour of St. Paul's Cathedral

and we decided to do this walk backward

 trying to keep things fresh and interesting

I found this walk to be fun to see were the printing area of London was.

Some of my Favorites;

Ye Olde Cheshired Cheese Pub

didn't go in-but will definitely be going back

Gough Square

I loved this little hidden area- fun to see Johnson's home.

St. Pauls

Best way to end the walk- Christopher Wren was an amazing architect.

Westminster

This Jaunt was easy

thanks to the Royal Wedding, 

we knew where everything was.

Some of my favorite things: 

*Buckingham Palace*

I have been wanting to see this since I was itty bitty

Westminster

I would have like to go in,

but the line was a mile long to see inside

St. Margaret's Church

This little church was such a fun surprise, 

It was interesting to read the sign about

the window in the church was commissioned for

Henry 8 and Catherine of Aragon.

To bad church services are right during our church times- I definitely would go. 

Regents Park

Started this Jaunt at the top of Primrose Hill

&

passed by the London Zoo {on the to-do list to visit}

Strolling through Regent’s Park was quite beautiful

Surprised though to see homes 

situated smack-dab in the middle of the park 

{those lucky ducks}

 Walked by the Boating Lake

Loved seeing the smaller lake made specifically for children

Queen Mary’s Garden was delightful

Taking funny pictures by the Mermaid fountain was memorable.

Conclusion: 

Regents Park was a great way to kick off the walks.
