Winter Wonderland

DSC_0014

The lights are already sparkling in trees around London and strung across Regents Street and Oxford Street and many others. Shop window displays are spewing fake snow onto mannequins and Santa’s already in town to hear the children’s wishes. Jamiefraser1 added this snowglobe shot to Flickr pool over the weekend.

Hyde Park just opened up its Winter Wonderland so if you’re looking for something fun to do, they’ve got a huge ice rink, Christmas shows, rides and a giant observation wheel.

What are your favourite Winter in London activities? Anyone have any good recommendations to share?

London Art Spot: Retail Opportunities

Okay, so it’s not exactly a normal Art Spot post, but it’s a pretty artistic photo from past Art Spot interviewee Kathy Archbold, aka Buckaroo Kid.  It also fits the “observationist” theme perfectly, so I had to share. Proper Sunday Art Spot interviews start up again next week!

does it get any better?
