Summer hits London

The sun has been shining now for a couple of weeks and it is fabulous. Shorts, t-shirts and picnics in the park are all go.

I went for a walk from my place in Maida Vle along the canal to Regents Park and Primrose Hill and along the way we saw some amazing homes that back onto the canal. Apparently one of the homes is that of the US Ambassador and so when Obama was in London the other week he stayed there and they closed off all access to this path along the canal.

We had another loely sunny weekend just gone and I spent a lovely relaxing day in the park reading my book. Oh how London has missed the sun shine. So fingers crossed we have a better summer than last year...
