Sponsored Walk for Sanity 2
Dedicated to Juliette who completed the walk on 13/10 despite the fact that at that time she was 4 months pregnant.
Sunday 8th December 2002
Stop shopping and come out for a nice refreshing walk through winter London.
After all, it has been scientifically proven that walking long distances through London in the winter months, in the fresh air makes you happier, healthier, better looking and generally more gorgeous.
PRACTICALITIES:
The walk will start at the British Museum at 11am
(giving you a bit of time to have a look around it before we start)
The walk is LONG (trust me – you don?t even want to know how many miles) & it will take most of the day to complete.
From the British Museum we?ll walk via Hyde Park to South Kensington where you can decide how and where you want to spend your hour & half of well deserved break.
You can chose from the following museums:
Science Museum
Natural History Museum
Victoria and Albert Museum
And again – it?s up to you what you decide to do with this time whether it is to sit down for a cup of tea / lunch or to have a look around one of the museums.
The second part of the walk is from South Kensington Through Hyde Park, Green Park and St James? Park to the Imperial War Museum, where the walk finishes, giving you – hopefully - enough time for a brief visit of the museum.
