We arrived in the early afternoon at our Air B&B studio apartment, a short walk from the South Kensington underground station. We were really jetlagged, so we needed some exercise in the daylight. After dropping off our stuff at the apartment, we walked to Harrods department store, Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace. At Harrods we gawked at the food dept, which was like an art of food exhibit. My favorite was the desert case shown below. In our way Buckingham Palace, we kept seeing formally dressed women, all with frilly hats. We found out that they were all coming from the Queens garden reception. See photo of the crowd in front of the palace below.
On the way back from the palace, we walked through Green Park where I took a photo of Marge in front of a tree lined path. See photo below.
During rush hour we noticed hordes of bike commuters who somehow managed to avoid running into each other or over any pedestrians.
