Foxes and Squirrels

I came home on Saturday morning, bright and early at 5am after a night out and came around the corner of our building and there were two foxes. Now, having never seen foxes except in zoos and tv etc this was highly surprising. I just never thought I would see a fox in suburban London. Sadly I wasn't quick enough to get a photo, but it was very cool.

On Monday I went out with my Finnish flatmate and there was a squirrel just happily doing its thing. I did get a photo of that. New favourite thing, squirrels.

We met up with her friend also from Finland at her friend's flat. I liked the little courtyard. It isn't quite crytoscopophilia, but it is pretty close. The front window is made up of those glass bricks so it wouldn't be possible for a good peek in anyway. It is peeking out instead.

Our mission for the day was to walk around Hyde Park. We walked to the lake and around, bought coffee, pain au chocolate and icecream, something each, not all for one.
It was decided that the Princess Diana children's park had unfair opening hours for those without children and took some photos around the place. Mission accomplished. We also went up to Portobello Road and looked at a few shops.
Had lunch in a pub and drank too much red wine. It was a good day out.
