"All truly great thoughts are conceived by walking..."
- Friedrich Nietzsche
Yes it definitely is, for some reason from my childhood I always loved walking... I think it was my grandpa who inculcated that habit in me
I have learnt so many things discussed so many things while I have walked a million miles with my grandpa...
And now that even DH loves walking, its kind of an added advantage for me to walk to wherever and whenever possible... Talk every possible thing under the sky... discuss, argue, debate and eventually fight... and return home with a zipped mouth.
Of all the places and the routes, we both love to walk along the "Thames path" in London, near the Tower bridge, walk along the River Thames running on one of our sides... This path covers almost 50-60% of our office route.. so we walk along this path in the mornings provided we really do a marathon in getting ready ;) and also when we really need a break and a relaxing evening...see the lights and their reflection on the Thames, the majestic Tower Bridge, the people, the crowded pubs... all together to experience a painfully beautiful winter (of course during winter)
Early morning walk is the best one, we reach this pathway in no time...about 15min from my place, the path which leads to this Thames path itself is so very enchanting, the houses around are so beautiful, each and every house has a lovely garden with beautiful and colourful flowers... and on to the other side there is this sparkling River running...calmly and silently...from where you could see the gigantic Tower Bridge and couple of other huge, tall buildings, and there is a path way where most of the bollywood movies are shot, the pathway looks very antique and is basically a stone pavement, which gives the glam and is surrounded by the old British to modern high class pubs...and a few steps more and there it is the class in itself.. artistic the mighty Tower Bridge... I just cant get enough of it, the very sight Tower Bridge on River Thames... I can just keep staring at it.. lost somewhere...its a pleasant feeling to be there...
I see the commercial window cleaners cleaning the tall building's window panes,I have always wondered, what a technology - they invest on a big architecture buildings and then they invent machines and create jobs to clean them... well there is nothing wrong... there is no end to man's invention and thinking!
As I move along to reach the London Bridge, I smell the hot air coming out of a cellar, then I realize its the fitness first - for which I have been subscribed for a year but hardly use it :( having the guilt I walk past to see on my right people walking on the London Bridge - they all look like black ants walking one behind the other busily making their way out... and also the St Paul's tomb... as I climb the stairs to actually connect to London Bridge, that ends my walk on the Thames path... and then I get out of the lovely morning walking mood, hurriedly walk - almost jog ;) to make it to work on time!

Passing through different kinds of people some in black suits, some jogging and some ladies in the pencil tip heels walking merrily ... further as I walk along I see this huge ship, I always used to wonder about it, what it does standing there... on the Thames attracting so many people, until I got to know that it was Britain's naval heritage ( which is associated with world wars)
