Since it was a nice and sunny day in London today I decided to head out to St James’s Park and take a few photographs. St James’s Park is located in Westminster, right next to Buckingham Palace so there are always heaps of people around taking photos and feeding the birds and squirrels which are all over the park.

There seemed to be more birds on the grass today than usual but I think it may have had something to do with the lake being empty. Well, the ducks at least anyway. It looks like the lake is in the process of getting a major clean up and refill.

The park is also home to heaps of squirrels which are so cute. You can see them hesitantly taking peanuts offered by many of the park’s visitors. You can see one eating a peanut in one of the photos.

We just got back from a weekend in Paris, France. Paris is such a beautiful city with so many grand buildings and spectacular monuments. We pretty much walked everywhere so my legs are still so sore. I didn’t realise the city was so big!

Some of the places we visited included the Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame de Paris, Montmartre and Pigalle, the red-light district of Paris and home to the Moulin Rouge.

All in all we had a great time. Apart from people on the street constantly trying to scam us for cash and the fact that everything was expensive it was a great weekend. It was well worth it for the experience.
