The beach at Bankside. Neither Chie nor Erika seemed particularly keen to stroll along it.12:45:58
Fed up as I am of the endless cooking and washing up at home, I'd thought somewhat naively we could pick up a takeaway while we were out, not entirely thinking through the difficulties that would entail. Erika got really hungry almost as soon as we arrived at the Thames, so we had to settle for pretty much the first thing we saw that was open - the Leon behind the Tate Modern - and of course we then had to sit and eat outside. Overall it wasn't a particularly fun experience, alas.15:29:45
To my surprise though despite the lack of success of the earlier outing the girls agreed to head out again for a walk on Hampstead Heath.15:41:01
A couple of funny not very well composed pictures of Erika atop Parliament Hill.

It was cold again, but somehow this outing seemed more successful.15:48:33
There was a nice atmosphere atop Parliament Hill for the brief time we were there.15:48:37
