Ever since I came to London the only colour I could see was GREY !! The skies were grey , the buildings grey roads, river,trees even people here wore either black or grey !! I was just dying to see a dash of sunshine , colors ,happiness in here :)
But this week and the past week finally the Sun God was happy it seems cause he smiled :) and it was all sunshine evrywhere !!

So out we went to soak in as much warmth as we could and enjoy the outdoors :) We went to Hamstead heath and once I reached there I was soo happy !! Though my husband had read about the place many a times , I had no clue about the place bu it t turned out to be just perfect :)
Hamstead Heath is a vast expanse of grassy land surrounded by greens , ponds, ancient woods and some beautiful view of London .
Actually it has one of the highest points in London . I could feel sooo close to nature people enjoying their stroll , kids playing running , joggers ,dog , sweet happy couples evryone seemed happy . Ahhh !! I soo wished I could fill my lungs with the sweet warm air ..
Also close by was Keats House where the great poet John Keats spent some years of his life and wrote some memorables poetry !!
It is here that Keats wrote his 'Ode to a Nightingale' . Never had I thought I would have the good fortune of coming here ..Have read so much about the poet in college !! ahhhh :)
It is the view from one of the parlour in the house .. The management is indeed doing a good job of retaining the original look and feel of the house ..
After all the walking, seeing and reading it was time for some hot chai . We spotted a small & sweet cafe Poly's nearby and went to sip and nibble something :)
And after I gulped all this down I was still hungry !! No not for food but for some more roaming around !!
So off we went to check out another awesome place !!
More on that in another post !!
Couldnt have been a better way to end the week :)
