Jess, Charne and I went for a walk in the lovely winter sunshine through the park. It seemed the rest of London had the same idea as us, it was pretty busy in the park. We walked along the Serpentine and past the Princess Diana Memorial Fountain, which was an interesting monument to her.

We came to Kensington Gardens and continued walking towards High St Kensington. Then we saw the Albert Memorial, which looked unreal as the sun was setting and reflecting off the gold.
