A truly beautiful day in the neighborhood!

  
It's set to be a beautiful sunny, warm day in the neighborhood (according to the weather outside right now and the plethora of weather websites I check).  So if you happen to have the day off or can escape for lunch we suggest you spend it outside as we all know a beautiful summer's day in London is not to be taken for granted.

City Escapes


It's always nice to know that when the city life becomes too much, there are places of serenity that can provide a temporary break.  When these places are also beneficial to the community as well, they should most certainly be recognised and praised.  Hackney City Farm  is one of these such places.  Hiding among the urban population, the farm boasts eco-friendly practices and is a fantastic place to take children and adults alike.  While I find myself especially fond of the pigs, the other animals that roam around the farm are certainly enjoyable as well.  There is also a lovely cafe on site, serving  wonderfully prepared meals using fresh seasonal ingredients.
