There are a lot of photos for this visit, as you can imagine. As the trip itself was quite good, I've done one post on the trip there and back, and another inside the zoo. This is the trip one.
When we went to
Little Venice a few weeks ago, we found out that there is a water bus right into the zoo, saving a long tube trip round and a long walk at the other end. The boat trip is cheap as chips, very easy to get to for us, and you get to see parts of London you normally wouldn't.
Start on the tube, just a couple of stops to Royal Oak.
Here we are back in lovely Little Venice.
So lovely, in fact, that this guy thought he would do his bit for global warming and re-radiate a few megajoules of energy back into space.
And here's the bus.
One of the river's denizens, a Canada Goose. Good eating!
Off down the canal, then. Quite a few people live along here in the narrow boats.
Scary tunnel ahead.
In the scary tunnel.
It was a nice sunny day but there is a fair bit of shelter along the banks.
Just in case the Germans come.
Inside Regents Park now, approaching the zoo.
There's some pretty good architcture along the way.
One of the Queen's swans. How do we know this swan belongs to the Queen? Cos they all do, that's how.
This guy is also doing his best for global warming but, as a safety measure, he thought it best to keep his socks on just in case.
And we got back to Portobello Rd to find this - which was great!
