London Calling

June 14, 2012

For all you lucky ducks off to London this summer, weve rounded up a few
(non Olympian) highlights worth the trip:


If temperatures peak (much like here, the weather has been erratic) cool
off in the Serpentine
Lido
. Just dont be surprised if youre splashing about with a local
swan or two.

For a little peace and quiet, head to the heavenly Chelsea Physic Garden
one of Londons oldest botanic garden. Lunch at the Tangerine Dream is
always a treat. www.chelseaphysicgarden.co.uk

Let your imagination soar at Flights of Fancy. Large-scale installations
inspired by the theme of flight are on display at the Tatton Park
Biennial (ends September 30). www.tattonparkbiennial.org

Mad Hatters should head to Selfridges for the Big British Tea party on
the rooftop of the venerable department store. There will be music, mini
golf and tomfoolery galore (ends September 2) http://style.selfridges.com

Hotfoot it to Lamb’s Conduit Street for some of the best independent
shops in central London. With its eclectic mix of textiles, ceramics,
baubles and accessories, Darkroom
is not to be missed. Athena Tsavliris
