Belated Father's Day Family Outing!

Laura had the brainwave of an unusual Father's day gift for her dad: there was an exhibition on at the V&A she wanted to see, and she thought he would like it too, and the fact that it was sponsored by H*bit*t and that her brother might be able to get free tickets rather added to the attraction.

So today was the day, and I was included too..so L, C and I headed off on the train and met J up in London: first stop was a walk into Hyde Park to visit the Serpentine Pavilion: every year there is an architect's competition to design a cafe and multi use area which is installed just for the summer and then sold off to the highest bidder.....anyone fancy this in their back garden?



Inside is a large circular space which is a cafe by day and a talks/workshop venue at night. Perhaps GB should buy it for the Festival? I took a couple more interior shots, showing the inside with an assortment of black hard foam rubber blocks for sitting, lying, putting your coffee on..and my family enjoying the facilities (and photographing the ceiling....)



















After a look round the photographic exhibition in the Serpentine Gallery, we walked along the lake to the restaurant and sat outside and enjoyed a rather nice lunch ..on the way I photographed another little family enjoying the Serpentine in the sunshine...
