As promised here are pictures of the Round Pond which is situated in front of Kensington Palace. You can see the exact location on the Wikimapia page where you will also notice that it is more square than round.
Random thoughts and photos of my journey through life…

Is it officially called ‘the Round Pond’? For me it’s always just been ‘The Pond’.
I think it is officially called ‘Round Pond’. It is mentioned in a few places on the Kensington Palace website but without much detail. Here is one instance which has a nice tale to go with it.
Look at the birds…So confident! You must have been near them to take those beautiful photos. And they didn’t fly away. Do you speak birds’language, Cherie?
They are extremely tame. I have some other photos where people are walking past them really close and they don’t move an inch!
Nice anecdote to ponder about, CherryPie. Thank you.
I thought it was rather interesting too
It’s a long time since I’ve been there. It is a lovely location.
I wanted to visit the orangery too but I was overruled…
Oh, I love the Round Pond – one of my favourite places in London. Used to live nearby and walked through the Gardens en route to work at one stage: the most enjoyable commute I’ve ever had, even in the rain! Thank you so much for the beautifully-photographed reminders, Cherie.
I am glad you enjoyed the reminder
I don’t think I would like to live in the city but I do wish I was closer to visit and explore more often.
