On Saturday we caught the tube to Mile End for a six mile walk through east London to check out progress on the 2012 Olympic site. It’s a lovely walk too!
Enjoying a picnic on the Green Bridge over the Mile End Road.
The walk took us along two canals – the Regent’s Canal and the lesser known Hertford Union canal, past Victoria Park.
