Dulwich

A random excursion today to Dulwich, an affluent suburb in South London.  A number of celebrities own homes here, for example Jason Statham and Tom Cruise.  And from my brief 4 mile foray, it did seem like a perfectly pleasant area.  But as I cross off some of the few remaining London walks in my book, the walks do tend to be a bit more obscure and less photogenic.  This was definitely one of those.  Most unusually, I hardly took any photos at all during this walk.  There just weren't that many "sights" in this walk, it was just a nice neighborhood stroll.  And for that reason, I'm not sure the walk justified the cost of traveling to Dulwich.  Which is a shame.  I don't want to think like that, but this was also another walk where I was suffering in the heat.  I don't know what is going on - I seem to be sweating profusely whenever I go out.  I don't have this issue in the US.  I think I need to get some better antiperspirant.
