On a sunnier day than expected in London, I decided to spend most of the day at the parks. I visited Regent's Park and pretended to go to the Zoo (admission is too expensive!). I walked up Primrose Hill and got a view from there of the city. Then I walked down Paul McCartney's street, Cavendish Avenue. I also passed the Abbey Road crossing on my way to Marlebone High Street and Baker Street. Then I walked on for a picnic lunch in Hyde Park and Kensington Gardens, finally to the Victoria and Albert Museum. At the museum, I saw a few watercolours by Beatrix Potter, but I had missed the big exhibition of her work there last year. I'll have to just read about it in the book Beatrix Potter: Drawn to Nature.
