Regents Canal
The Regent's Canal is a canal across an area just to the north of central London. It provides a link from the Paddington arm of the Grand Union Canal, just north-west of Paddington Basin, in the west, to the Limehouse Basin and the River Thames in east London. Little Venice to West India QuaySunday 24 February 2008 - 10 MilesID24022008#8 A nice little walk innit. Started from Victoria Station, walked through Hyde Park, then walked from Paddington Basin up to Little Venice. An interesting walk, taking in London Zoo and Camden Lock, through the redevelopment around St Pancras, and onto Islington, where you leave the towpath at the Tunnel. I meet up with a friend, and she and I walked the rest of the way together, back onto the towpath, and going through the edge of Victoria Park. We came off the towpath here (getting dark) and walked down to West India Quay for a dose of Cineworld...

Passed Mile End Locks and the canal was iced over - the winged critters looked a bit stumped!
