Living it up at the Lido

Now despite the clouds, the sun did make a steady appearance in Londontown this past Sunday. As soon as Traveller took her weekly trip to the farmers' markets, she knew it was time for some Lido-action. Now, for those of you not in the know, Lido is the term in the UK for swimming pool or a part of a beach where you can swim. As the weather has been not as summery as she would have hoped, T knew that she had to make the most of the opportunity to put swimmers on and hit the pool!

Hubbie was hard-at-work studying again, so Traveller went with running friend to the Lido in Hampstead Heath. While many Australians will gasp at the entry price (£4.30!) - let it be known, it was well worth it!

Some days you just need a swim.

It was a glorious day, and was finished with a late-afternoon picnic on Primrose Hill.
