Walk in London: Regent's Park

Amazingly before yesterday, I'd never walked through Regent's Park. I'd driven through there many a time, but had never strolled along the canal. So on Sunday instead of taking the terrier to our usual haunt, Hampstead Heath, we drove further into the centre of London.

You wouldn't believe on top of this bridge there's busy traffic

OK, it wasn't that busy on the bridge after all...

It's amazing to think that there is such a vast green space in central London, and that this is just one of the many parks in this great city. On a day like yesterday it was bliss walking along the canal - even dodging the odd runner and cyclist, it felt as if we had the place to ourselves.

What's the point of the countryside again? (Just joking...)
