The St. John's Wood High Street. This will always be a special place to me. It represents so much of what I loved about living in London. It conjures up nostalgic feelings of what it must've been like to live in the era of "The American Main Street." Before there were big box stores and everyone drove around in their cars. When you had a butcher, a flower market, a bakery, an ice cream shop....(we have all of those!). I make the trek to this "main street" in our community at least three times a week for Owen's school and often once or twice on the weekend when headed to the park. There is such a sense of community that you feel when you begin the approach to the shops and restaurants often running into several friends along the way.
