Summer in London

We had two days in London last week and at last experienced some English summer .....
All around London they have bikes to hire and we decided to explore Hyde Park.
Bikes can be hired from racks like these, and returned to any other rack...



The bikes are very heavy but easy to ride..

These guys were practicing which was spectacular to watch.

Always love the deck chairs in the parks.

 Lunch time...sorry no food photo :-)...next post.

The previous day while walking around London we stopped at Trafalgar Square, sat in the sun and watched the world go by.


Walking home through St James's park....love London in the summer...however brief

  5. Lovely day shopping...didn't buy much just enjoyed the experience. Certainly not a car !Another shopping day coming up at the end of the holiday with Jo, she shares my enthusiasm for shopping so should be more productive...She also knows London better and unfortunately the expensive shops !!
