da hampstead picnic


finally the sun came out and it was possible to have a proper picnic.
where art thou? B. and his princesses could not find the spot:( it was a bit frustrating being so close and so far at the same time. next time it will be different because we will have good maps!

while we were trying to find them, we discovered the ponds, where some people have the courage to bathe. you can also find ducks bathing close by. shocking, to say the least!

food and drinks are the main attractions in an event like this. mini eggs are a must, so are the dips, fruit and brownie bites. i was basically eating whole afternoon! A. had the biggest bottle of pro-seco and opening the bottle was the picnic climax!
D. found a friend to play "clumsy" tennis. and i learned that sudokan has nothing to do with maths.
before leaving we still managed to film the google mail 10 sec video, having the wonderful view from parliament hill as scenery.

i am a beach addict, but after this i will have to reconsider the potentialities of this genre of outdoors activities.
