Well, this is all going to be very exciting! We are embracing a whole new world with gusto. Our best day last week was catching the number 24 bus from Pimlico all the way to Hampstead Heath. Sitting on top at the front of the bus, watching London roll by-- the sky was clear blue, the trees bare. Before walking, we had a delicious cappucino in a little cafe by the entrance to the Heath. What a remarkable place H.H is- very very beautiful, like being in the middle of the country, lots of people walking their dogs,(yet not ONE said good morning- strange because in Cornwall you are regarded as strange if you DON'T say good day)- these seemed strangely superior North London beings--. 2 hours later came off the heath, a 24 bus was waiting, jumped on and up to the front at the top for our journey home-- a wonderful day out that cost a mere £4 with our oyster cards (not including the coffees!)
