Fleet Street and St. Paul's . .

I led this walk and it was a bit more challenging than I thought. Our group definitely took our time on this walk. We stopped and bought candy, went to Samuel Johnson's home, and even went to a church for a short tour. The group was comprised of Kaylee, Nick, Shelisa, Allison, Hannah and myself. The walk was very impressive and I always love seeing St. Paul's Cathedral.

The City (East) . .

This walk was a blast. I loved walking through all of the narrow alleyways and really getting to know the financial district of London. It seemed like we were constantly zig zagging but I really enjoyed seeing little passages of the city that I normally wouldn't notice. Oh, and once again, I got a great view of the Tower of London. This city is a dream.

Bankside and Southwark . .

The Bankside and Southwark walk was full of surprises. It was a two day journey to finish it but I loved seeing the tower bridge at night AND during the day. The walk covered a beautiful part of town and I was even surprised to run into the Globe Theater on both days. Seeing things that you never imagine seeing just never gets old.

Regent's Park . .

The Regent's Park walk offered a beautiful view of the city and the canals. I enjoyed walking up Primrose Hill and I especially loved walking by the boats docked in the canal. Walking with the entire program gave me a bit of BGA (big group anxiety), but I know it's important for us to bond - and much bonding took place. Part of the walk that we took as a group covered a portion of the Regent's Park walk so Nick, Kaylee, Molly, Tara, Shelisa and I all continued walking. I really enjoyed walking around the beautiful pond and stream that go through the park. The park is massive and very well used. I can tell that parks are an important part of life in London.
