Beautifully Fresh Morning Stroll
Yet another wonderful morning walk from King's Cross to work. I wish they did an earlier train, I'd love to get in and take some pictures with a sun rise in summer. It was a tiny bit fresh in the air this time, but pleasant enough as walking at a decent pace in the sun does get very hot very quick.
I walked down to Russel Square, past the museum, up to Trafalgar Square, then followed it past Westminister. I forgot to put my watch on again so was unable to record the exact route. I can confirm I have learned 95% of it and am now not relying on Google maps anymore.
If I could finish work a better time I would walk back, but at that time of day I would rather tube it and get to a decent train given the 1hr 20min journey back.
