Sunday musings...

Last Sunday we finally walked to Battersea Park. A large, well-done park about a mile or so from our house. Sounds ridiculous that we haven't been there yet, but we kept finding other things to do. I think that is how it has been for us - we've got so much to see around the city that we have sort of neglected our little radius. So, here are some of our photos from our walk along the Thames to the park. We also walked right by Foster+Partners offices. They were having a raucous party up above. I have always liked the building next door to them, which I called the "rocket bubble". And now that I've done some scouting, it seems that they designed it. We're feeling pretty lucky to live in this area.

On with the show...
