Charlie’s favourite day was the day they spent in Hyde Park. As soon as he entered the big park through the metal gate he completely forgot that he was in a large city.

The first thing he saw was a friendly young lady with blue hair. She crouched on the ground and fed the squirrels . The little animals were very trusting and picked the nuts from her hand. Charlie could see all kinds of animals. Some people walked their dogs . One person even had 5 dogs with him. He probably was a dogwalker. This is a person whose job it is to walk other people’s dogs.

To the left Charlie could see a funny man with a yellow Mohawk haircut on green roller blades with blue wheels. He was an instructor for inline skaters and showed his group all different kinds of moves.

To the right he could hear some loud noise. There were big trees and a young couple fed apples to green parrots . Hyde Park even has two routes for horse

riding .
