HAMPSTEAD HEATH

Last weekend was just amazing and one of the best weekends I’ve had in a very long time.

A few of us headed over to Hampstead Heath where we joined the masses all out enjoying the Indian Summer, armed with food a plenty for a delicious picnic in the sun.

More importantly…I got to fulfill by Summer ambition to swim in the Hampstead ponds…and in OCTOBER no less! The ponds are now closed for the rest of the year, but if you ever get the chance to go for a dip…I highly recommend it. The bf & I held hands and leaped into the murky green waters…plunging far deeper than either of us were expecting. SO SO cold that we lasted a mere 5 minutes if that. Came out shivering but elated to have done it.

Here are some snapshots from the weekend…most definitely a weekend to cherish.
