Richmond Park

With a lighter class schedule this fall, I've found a few more free mornings to ride my bike than last year. While the parks around London can be super busy bordering on unpleasant during a nice weekend, mid-week they feel well utilized but a bit more spacious. Today was a nice day to be in the park.

This morning it was cold enough to see your breath as I rode the 25 minutes across town to Richmond Park. It was a good reminder that despite the sunny skies Fall is on the way.

Once in the park, it is easy to forget that you are still inside a major city.




At other times you feel the proximity of city. Seeing the large herd of deer (the website claims there are over 600 in the park) living a comfortable life in the shadow of tall buildings is still a bit strange.
