Hyde Park/The Pub

So, today was supposed to be a day where we went about in groups, searching for certain touristy things and taking photos, but we were rained out. So we discussed the classes and had the rest of the day to do whatever. A group of about five of us went to Hyde Park for most of the day.



The picture below is of a Princess Diana Memorial Fountain. It's king of neat because it just sort of snakes around really low to the ground. In fact, as we were standing there, a boy of about five fell into the water.


We walked until we were hungry and headed back, passing through what is known as the second most fashion centered street in London, Sloane Street. Every big name from Prada to Gucci to Fendi to Jimmy Choo and much much more was there. And Sarah, you would be interested to know that a Kenneth Cole is also there. (Any way I can get Daniel's discount here? :D)
Anway, a bit later about ten of us, nearly half of the house, took the tube to South Chelsea to a pub to hear live jazz. It was very good, and my first trip to a pub for drinks. The pub was called the Effra Hall Tavern.
We didn't stay too long, as we had to make it back to the tube before it closed at midnight.
