<\/a>Gorgeous tiles at the exit to Regent Park’s station.<\/p><\/div>\n
My plans weren’t too ambitious. I would just walk in a generally westerly\u00a0direction (ie. back towards Kensal Green) to the Marylebone or Baker Street stations and return home from there. I saw some gorgeous flowers on my walk.<\/p>\n And a lovely fountain.<\/p>\n I found a toilet with an interesting flushing mechanism.<\/p>\n You have to pay 20p to use the toilet. Similar setup and price to\u00a0Mexico!<\/p>\n I found paradise. What more could a gal want?!<\/p>\n The burger prices were very reasonable by any standard. The hot dogs, though, wow!<\/p>\n Very good soft serve!<\/p>\n I don’t want to admit how long I stood at this map trying to orientate myself. My brain was fried<\/em>!<\/p>\n Lovely gate.<\/p>\n Then, came the roses, each prettier than the last! I thought these would be my favourite…<\/p>\n What is this bird?! Its feet were really odd.<\/p>\n These turned out to be my favourite roses. Look at their name! I fell in love with them before I saw the sign.<\/p>\n So pretty!<\/p>\n I passed the wedding party that belonged to this monstrosity…<\/p>\n Not sure what church this is.<\/p>\n Out of the park and walking the famous Marylebone Road. I only know how to pronounce it (Mar-leh-bone) because I heard the name mentioned a few times on “Sherlock.”<\/p>\n Madame Tussaud’s wax museum. I went to the one in Las Vegas in ’07.<\/p>\n I was going to end up seeing a lot of this station…<\/p>\n Found a sushi restaurant I want to try…<\/p>\n Won’t be hard to find again as it’s right in front of 221B Baker Street, home of the Sherlock Holmes museum. I’m not a fan of the books (just the modern series) and know the museum is a complete rip off, so I wasn’t temped to visit.<\/p>\n I had reached my limit by this point,so I rode home from the Baker Street station. I got in at 6:30 and promptly went to bed with my computer. By 7:00, I was seeing double and gave up. I shut down and promptly passed out, waking up just shy of midnight.<\/p>\n I ended up being awake for nearly three hours even though I was exhausted. I wound\u00a0up researching afternoon tea and found one that seemed suitable for me in terms of location, price, and dress code, so I booked it for Tuesday afternoon.<\/p>\n By the time I was ready to go back to sleep, my phone was almost dead, so I decided to try my new power converter, which has a USB port. It works great!<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n
