Day 18 .... 31.05.13 .... Brentford Marina


                       What a beautiful day! Lots of sunshine this morning and oh so lovely and warm.


Brentford Marina from our mooring looks really picturesque.




We had already arranged to collect our post from a friend today so we decided to ride our bikes along the Thames Path to Pimlico where we could catch a tube to Islington where she works. Looking at the map we thought it looked pretty staightforward and so we set off thinking this will only take us an hour! The first bit was very pretty until we reached Putney Bridge when we were redirected off the path and through new parts of Imperial Wharf and Chelsea. We were soon back on track......



Lovely view along the Thames Path looking back towards Imperial\Wharf.



We passed lots of high rise apartment and office blocks but much preferred the old familiar buildings ....




                            such as Battersea\Power Station. In the end it took us a couple of hours to get to our destination. We did keep stopping............................... but only once at a pub and it looked so old and traditional!
