Regents Park Walk

This is my first official "walk" through London: Regents Park.  The group left the Centre and walked to Paddington and then up Regents Canal past little Italy and the London Zoo.  It was absolutely beautiful.  The walk began at the TOP of Primrose Hill, which has a magnificent view of the city.  I just laid in the luscious, wild grass and watched the clouds go by before I descended Primrose Hill and headed to a tasty lunch at Camden markets. I loved the cultural diversity there: Spanish food, Chinese, Mexican, Thai, African, Turkish, Portuguese, Peruvian, and Indian...So many to choose from!  I settled on a delicious Turkish grilled chicken wrap. Yum!  After lunch I followed Bri as she led the walk around Regents Park with Lauren, Taylor, Kristen, Emily S., Amy S. Andrea, Lindsay, and Jessica .  I absolutely loved the canals and the upscale, calmer city life of Regents Park.  It was so much quieter and more peaceful than the city center, and I enjoyed the break from the hustle and bustle of city life.  We took it slow because of the amount of walking we had already done, and the pace was really nice.  The houses in Regents were so cute and colorful – they reminded me of a box or brightly colored crayons. If I were to live in London, judging by the places I’ve seen thus far, I would live by Regents Park.  I also think this is the park where Finding Neverland with Johnny Depp was filmed – and that’s another reason to love Regents Park.  Fun fact: London has more drinking fountains for pets than for humans... and we took a picture in front of one in Regents Park.  It was beautiful, but the guy we asked to take our picture thought we were crazy and weird for wanting a picture with the dog's water hole. I can't decide if that's a lemon or a melon... :)
