Different Perspectives

Why not try something different when you are next in London and see the City from a different perspective? 

Here is a small snippet of what is on offer along a mini stretch of the Regents Canal.

This particular section was from Angel (Islington City Road Basin) to Hackney Wick area. There is so much to see and do along here, if so wished. I ended up mainly taking photos, seeing the sights and occasionaly stopping for a little chat with some people I met along the way. 

The waterways are an amazing way to see London from a different viewpoint whilst getting some fresh air and exercise. A great place to get the cogs turning, take sometime from the computer screen (if you are working in the area and a non tourist), connect with the surroundings, nature and others. 

The perfect remedy for most things really and hopefully a whole new world of discovery to spark the imagination too. 

Along this walk there was plenty to see and do, the canals certainly feel alive with runners, people on their lunchbreaks and others exploring the area, not to mention the beautiful boats and all their quirky and cool features.

I spotted so many boats decorated with fun and weird trinkets and trinkets, cool names, oddities and energy. Lots of the decor made me want to meet the people who owned them, they were all so full of personality it made me wonder who owned such delights.

Along this particular section of canal there are an amazing amount of excellent things to spot along the way, not only the boats but the graffiti, cute canal cottages, writing on the walls, shops, places to stop for a cuppa, along with plenty of conversations to be had, if so inclined and lets not forget the baby moorhens for the cutness overload.
