All the Pinks (Pall Mall, Whitehall and Northumberland Avenue) and Marylebone Station

With nothing to do on a Sunday just gone I decided to get up and go and do the pink parts of the Monopoly board.

As the places were getting closer to where I live, I was able to get more done in a day and managed to get another set done and get my second station.

Pall Mall

Pall Mall was a hour and a half walk from my house and was simple to get to. Got a chance to walk down the mall (the long road leading up to Buckingham Palace) Didn't see anything exciting on the way and found Pall Mall no problems



Whitehall


I had to come back on myself to get from Pall Mall to Whitehall, took 5 mins to get from Pall Mall to Whitehall and that was done without any hassle.



Northumberland Avenue


I didn't attempt to try and find Northumberland Avenue until I found Whitehall but I presumed I was near. A few roads later whilst waiting for my google maps to load up I accidently ended up on it.



Marylebone Station


This was the tricky part. I could had left this for another day but I had plenty of time and decided to make the most of it. It would take a hour and a half from Northumberland to Marylebone station but was up for the challenge. Saw some amazing things on the way thou, got caught up in a Sikh protest which stretched all the way down Piccadilly, came upon a huge Spanish festival which went down over half of Regent Street, came across a protest outside the Chinese Embassy which involved 1 man with a umbrella and also went past 221b Baker Street which is of course home to the great Sherlock Holmes.
I finally arrived at Marylebone Station and my day was complete.



Next the oranges......
