Hello...
Just a quick post.
Pictures for this post were taken ages ago and in true me fashion I've only just sorted them out and had a nosey through them.
They are all taken in various spots in Hyde Park or Kensington Palace gardens, two of my favourite spots in London. My flatmates Toni (borrowers life) and I went on a spontaneous explore around the park and ended up walking for five hours! Not only exploring Hyde Park and Kensington but walking all the way to the south bank and having tea there (or as you southerner's say "dinner"). WARNING walking from Hyde Park to the South Bank is a lot further than it looks, even if you can see the London Eye in the distance its like a mirage. Poor Toni had to walk all that way with her tripod. We did get to use it and we got some great pictures from our trek.
It was such a beautifully sunny day so of course the trademark florals were out. My floppy hat also got to make an appearance (Yey!) I got it from Camden market last year and love the colour, it also protected my stupidly pale skin from the sun! I'm also so glad I wore my backpack. This was a present from my brother for Christmas (he has an unusually good taste) and is from H&M. I use it so much its practically attached to me. I've also started wearing a watch again. The one in the pictures is just a cheap one from eBay but its super cute. My shoes are from Primark and I wear them way to much but there just my go to shoes at the moment as they seem to be wearable with anything.
We had some pictures at the bandstand which was in the centre of the park.
As well as the flower Gardens of Kensington Palace. We got to see the Princess Diana Memorial and even saw Prince Edward land in a helicopter. (something royalist Toni was excited about, I on the other hand was slightly clueless).
Feet aching we finally made our way back to the flat after five hours of walking. catching the tube at Waterloo. Can I just say it was 9 o'clock and still warm! It does seem that this was the entire of our summer and in true British style it lasted the whole of three days! but hey it was fun while it lasted (haha).
Hope you like the pictures. More to come from my London travels soon. Including a vintage clothes haul.
Sounds like a great day!
