3 Best Walks!

My favorite walk, by far, was the Central Parks walk. I ran it one day and it was one of the best runs I have ever been on. It was nice to see all the different parks one after the other and just watch people as I ran past them. I also learned on this walk that I can find my way around better than I thought I could.

Second favorite walk would have to be the Soho walk. I felt like not many people enjoyed it as much as I did, but I found it very exciting and interesting. We also saw the little China Town, which I thought was pretty interesting. Although it was crazy busy, I really enjoyed that there was never a dull moment on this walk. I also had good company which makes everything better.

My third favorite walk would have to be the Bankside and Southwark walk. The views of the city were absolutely amazing and I loved seeing the Tower Bridge for the first time! I would honestly go on this walk a few more times just to walk along and see across the river again. It was so great!

The Soho walk was great because it was just packed full with the coolest shops...Sunday was probably a bad time to go on this walk because it would have been fun to eat there and check some stores out. Maybe I'll go back. I thought it was cool to see the National Gallery from the front. It's probably my favorite museum here! I absolutely love it! Also we say Pollock's Toy Museum, which I've been wanting to see! Anyway, overall it was a very busy, very exciting place. Not really for the faint hearted!

This would have been a great one to run and I might just go back and run it again. Doing this walk and the City east walk took a very long time, but I would say it was a great way to spend my time. I feel that I will remember seeing all these things and walking around more than I will remember sitting at our BYU centre or shopping. I really liked seeing the Tower Bridge. It was absolutely beautiful, but very windy up there above everything. I also liked walking through Hay's Galleria and of course had to walk through some of the shops. I found a random Christmas store at the end and got a laugh. It's a little early to be selling all Christmas decorations at your store. I also love haunted houses and such so I think the London Dungeon would be fun! Wish I had time!

The City (east)

Two walks in one day! I must say that I'm pretty proud of myself considering it was quite windy and we woke up at six this morning for the temple. I actually really enjoyed The City Walk because I got a mixture of the busy city life and the "by the river" excitement. I also had never really seen the Tower of London before now. Pretty sad I know, but at least I got a little preview before our tour. I also hadn't seen the bank of England before which was really great to see. I guess what I mostly appreciated about this walk was the amazing architecture. It was almost hard to believe how amazing it all was! Some of the building were unlike anything I'd ever seen!
