First London Walk

My first London Walk took place right after we walked along Regent's Canal as a group and then hiked to the top of Primrose Hill, which provided the most incredible view. We also visited Camden Markets, and that was an experience I will never forget. My first walk was Regent's Park. Our group had some awesome leaders, which we affectionately referred to as "dictators." I believe that good leaders can really make a difference in the success of a London walk, and they were certainly wonderful. We made our way from Primrose Hill past the London Zoo, and I must say that this part of London is quite beautiful. It has a smaller and more quaint feeling than the area of Bayswater and Queensway. I think it has to do with it being a more residential area. Anyways, we made some small stops along the way, including stopping at this gorgeous water fountain that took awhile to figure out how to turn on. It reminded all of us of the Chamber of Secrets, which made for a fun connection to Harry Potter. We took pictures in front of it as a group, as seen below. Regent's Park is absolutely beautiful, and we took a moment to stop and rest underneath some trees by the Boating Lake. It was serene, and I loved being able to stop and soak up the surroundings. We also saw a wedding in the Park, and it was beautiful. All in all, my first walk was a success. I hope to do all of my future walks in a similar manner.
