Magic Island [London walks]

{Sunday walks}: On Sunday afternoon I headed off to Richmond for a walk, this time fully intentioned to get to destination. Last Sunday I adventured 'into the wild' following the indication without checking the time, resulting on a U-TURN halfway down.
Heading South on the Thames-side path, I reached Teddington Lock and on the way I spotted a lots of wonders...Once in Teddington I decided to walk back to Richmond along the other side of the River. The scenery was great and I could observe - on reflection both side of the River except for an unexpected interruption: an island.


An organic Sunday

Waiting for the bus..

Quicker on the boat...?!

Ahead ..


On my right, the River Thames

Wait .. can I join in for that on-the-deck lunch?

Great views...from the top floor..

waking up in the morning...
My cottage, well..... in my dreams!!

All white


even outside


Little Venice?!! No a private island - Eel Pie island

Home is the best place I can be ..
My magazines, my books...the view

Parking space..



Looks familiar..
The Royal Star and Garter Home


established in 1916

It's getting cold..

Heading home.
