Fleet Street and St Paul's

On Thursday Lyse and I did the Fleet Street and St Paul's walk. Lyse led this walk, and it wasn't her best day leading a walk, but ya know we figured things out hah. We once again did this walk backwards--I don't know how that always ends up happening. Anyway this walk wasn't my favorite, which is weird because it wasn't terribly long, it had lots of alley ways and it was a beautiful sunny day. I think it was just because we were really hungry the whole time... Anyway we got off at St Paul's station saw St. Paul's Cathedral (where Princess D was married), and that was cool. Some other highlights were seeing churches and Dr. Johnson's house. Without further ado:

Westminster and St James Walk

This walk was a really fun walk! It was a beautiful day, there was nice company, and it wasn't too lengthy. I, naturally, led this walk on the beautiful Thursday afternoon. I have been to Westminster countless times but I still saw a ton of cool places I hadn't seen before. We got off at Westminster and consequently saw Big Ben, Parliament, and Westminster Abbey. We had arrived in the political part of London. We then saw cool places like Horse Guards Parade (which we didn't know existed) and Buckingham Palace. Overall it was a lovely walk--another one of my favorites! We also rewarded ourselves with Ben's cookies, because we just saw Big Ben...yes, we planned to have a themed dessert.

Inns Of Court Walk

So last Monday the 7th Lyse and I decided to take a stroll over in the West End and do the Inns of Court walk. This walk may have topped Bloomsbury; well it was a bit windy, but soo fun. We got off the tube at temple and thought we were going on the walk the right way, but turns out we started backwards haha, I guess it's a thing we do. Anyway, we went into the most beautiful gardens, saw cute little cafes along the way, saw signs announcing the royal wedding, saw some churches and chapels, saw new square and old square, went through cute alley ways, and ended with a picnic in Lincoln's Inn Fields. We ate Thai food, in case 'you' were wondering. It was a happy happy day.
