Kensington Gardens


My last day in London was another clear and sunny day with blue skies. This being the case Lisa and I took a trip over to Kensington Gardens to feed the squirrels. Lisa and Ben have discovered a secret spot in the park where there are plenty of squirrels to feed. We only had spiced roasted peanuts on hand and weren't sure whether they would like them, but seems that squirrels like anything going for free. Once they cotton on to the fact that you have nuts they are very tame indeed!


After feeding the squirrels we stopped for high tea at the Orangery inside Kenginston Gardens. It was a lovely traditional high tea with cucumber sandwiches, scones with jam and cream, and their specialty the Orangery cake.



After tea, we walked past a beautiful lake in the middle of the park full of big white swans. We continued through the park to catch a bus to the tube and head home. Now it's time to pack...
