Hyde Park

London's Hyde Park reminds me of New York's Central Park: large, central, well used by the community, lots of public events, room to stroll and to touch some grass. I wandered and photographed during a beautiful afternoon there, the first that was warm enough that I didn't need a cap.

I'd spent a little time in Hyde Park last year (you can see some photos from a link here), with my traveling companion Jim Andrew. He took me to see Speaker's Corner, where on Sunday afternoons anyone with a soapbox (or ladder) can come and say whatever he pleases. It's crazy.
