Speaker's corner at Hyde Park--a traditonal gathering place
for speakers, and protests in general
I did go for a couple of walks in Hyde Park--it's across the street after all. I didn't hit Speaker's Corner, which I liked so much when I was here in 1982. It was filled with cranks and even some normal people bellowing invective from the corner.
The fountains and pools of the Italian Gardens
I stopped by the Italian Gardens, which are wonderful, extremely orderly, and old. A Belgian architect built them in the 1800s, and they have recently been restored to their full glory.
