Autumn in Hyde Park

I took Monday off work to spend some time with Jason, Louise, and Criag. After ticking most of Craig’s tourist boxes over the weekend, the gang didn’t want to do anything too touristy; so we headed in to Harrods for some shopping, ate a Chicken Katsu Curry from Wasabi for lunch, and then headed for a walk through Hyde Park.

It was beautiful to see all the Autumn colours on the trees, and to walk through all the leaves fallen on the ground! We walked from the bottom of the park up to speakers corner at the top, near Marble Arch. There was no-one speaking though; apparently it’s more of a “weekends in Summer” thing (it was very cold with the wind whipping along).

We jumped on a 22 bus to get home, which was almost door-to-door. Best of all, our timing was absolutely perfect – it started raining the moment we sat down on the bus!

The rumour is that the gatecrasher in pink tutu and full beard was Prince Philip but the beard was actually a misplaced merkin.
