Kensington Gardens, London, Sun 3 Aug 08

I went to Kensington Palace & Gardens with the idea of going into the palace to check out where Princess Di lived but the gardens were so beautiful in the rain I ended up spending all day wondering around them. Because of the rain the park was quieter than normal and yet it somehow seemed to add something special.

There was a beautiful sunken garden with lots of flowers in a variety of colours and squirrels everywhere and a pond with lot's of swans, ducks and geese. The day started to clear up by late afternoon and I strolled to the other side of the park where I sat beside the Princess Di memorial fountain before walking back along the lake and did a big loop back around the park to the palace.
