Walk Report

Green Park to Tower Hill, Thursday 28th May 2015
13 walkers, 8 miles - leader Peter Russell
The Royal parks and Thames Embankment had much to look at on a bright evening.
The walk had 13 takers and was 8 miles without doing the loop around the round pond.
Highlights were the pelicans roosting on their rock, a zig-zag dazzle camouflage 1916 warship and, of course, a social beer and curry at Wetherspoons near the Tower of London.
