London's Vantage Points - Primrose Hill



The park, Primrose Hill is only a footstep from central London and has one of the best views, certainly worth the trip.

In fact if you want to:
  • Walk your dog

  • Sit and watch London go by

  • Get mown down by an army of joggers

  • Make out with a nanny while little spoiled brats play

  • then Primrose Hill is the place to go.
    Don't forget, this is the place where Mary Poppins belonged.

    It's like that here in Germany as well - as soon as the sun comes out around these days, people go to the parks, take walks and enjoy the sunshine... Very nice picture! Make me wanna go outside as well...

    Great green ham.

    By the way I have reason to believe Mary Poppins is living in Barcelona.

    Eric - hang on a moment while I float down on this umbrella

    BW - I have never taken pictures nor joined in, but watching the gavotte on a summer afternoon is an education and entertainment. Very Breugel.

    midnitebara - yes, there are excellent delis nearby and there are benches all over to use, including right on top of the hill.

    Bob - polarising filter ;-)

    Mathieu, Nicola, taiga - thanks!
