Set in the middle of London, very close to Westminster Abbey, the park is a refreshing change from the dirt and bustle of the city itself. The park stretches out to the west and consists of many green lawns, a pond spanned by a single bridge, and two stone paths; one on either side of the pond. To the north is the pond, to the south are the green lawns, and way ahead to the west you can just make out the back wings of Buckingham Palace. Outside the park to the south is the Abbey. ^ 2 s:1 n:3 w:11; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are on a beautiful green lawn just north of the main park entrance. To the northwest is a pond full of cool and clear water. To the south is an enormous open grassy area with a number of large shade trees. ^ 3 n:4 s:2 w:10; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Edge of the Pond^ The beautiful lawn on which you are treading meets with a pond just to the west. It looks as if the section of the pond nearest you has been marked off for wading. Perhaps it would feel good to dangle your feet in the cool water for a little while. ^ 4 s:3 n:5 w:9; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Edge of the Pond^ The pond that dominates the park meets with the lawn upon which you are standing, just to the west. It looks as if the section of the pond nearest you has been marked off for wading. Perhaps it would feel good to dangle your feet in the cool water for a little while. From where you stand, you notice that there is a second path through the park just to the north of the pond. ^ 5 s:4 n:6 w:8; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Entrance to St. James Park^ You are now at the northern entrance to St. James Park. There is another entrance to the south of you, beyond a pond. There is also a northern entrance at the western edge of the park, over where you can just make out the back wings of Buckingham Palace in the distance. The path you are on leads to the western entrance, past a pond to the south. ^ 6 s:5 w:7; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are north of the northern path through St. James Park. To the south you see a pond, beyond which lies a large expanse of beautiful green grass. The park is a welcome change to the hustle and bustle of the city. The lawns are well-manicured and the pond looks cool and clear. ^ 7 e:6 w:20 s:8; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are on the northernmost edge of the park, just north of the northern path. The pond is to the south, with a large grassy area beyond it. To the west you can see a bridge that spans the pond to join with another path on the southern side. ^ 8 n:7 s:9 w:19 e:5; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern east-west path through the park. The northern entrance is to the east, and the park stretches out to the west. To the south of you is the wading area of the pond. Beyond it is a large fountain, and you can make out a grassy area opposite the pond. ^ 9 n:8 s:10 e:4; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Wading Area^ Moving through the wading area, trying not to get your rolled-up pants too wet, you realize how good the water feels to your feet. You dip your arms in and cool your wrists. You then scoop up a little water in your hands and put it on the back of your neck. The water is rejuvinating, and suddenly you feel refreshed. To the west of you the water continues, but a rope line keeps you from wading into that area. You can, however, canoe around the pond if you can find a boat along the shore. ^ 10 n:9 s:11 e:3; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Wading Area^ Moving through the wading area, the water is refreshing. Feeling a bit frisky, you splash a nearby child. He looks at you pathetically and goes quickly back to the edge of the pond. To the west of you, the pond continues, but a rope line keeps you from wading into that area. ^ 11 n:10 s:12 e:2 w:16; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Edge of the Pond^ You are next to the wading area of the pond. The water looks inviting. Hours of walking through the city of London have made you feel weary and dirty. Perhaps a quick dip in the water would be refreshing. ^ 12 n:11 s:13 e:1 w:15; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are standing west of the main entrance to St. James Park. The park stretches out to the west and consists of many green lawns, a pond, fountains, and two stone paths. To the north is the pond, to the south the green lawns, and way ahead to the west you can just make out the back wings of Buckingham Palace. The path is lined on both sides by green park benches. ^ 13 n:12 w:14 e:56; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ Rising up next to you is a large shade tree. Its branches fan out above you, providing shade from the summer sun. To the north you can see a large fountain in the pond, spitting water up into the air with magnificent grace. Through the trees to the west you can just barely make out the back of Buckingham Palace. ^ 14 e:13 w:27 n:15; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are southeast of the main park entrance, against the southern fence. The city lies beyond it, but for now you are so taken with the park that you do not wish to go back out into it. It amazes you how such a clean and beautiful place can exist in such a large and dirty city. ^ 15 s:14 n:16 w:26 e:12; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Pathway Through St. James Park^ You are on an east-west path through St. James Park. To the east is the park entrance, and to the west is the expanse of the park. The park ends to the west where it joins with the gardens of Buckingham Palace. To the north is a pond with a large fountain in it, and to the south is a huge grassy place speckled with trees and people. The path is lined on both sides by green park benches. ^ 16 s:15 n:17 e:11 w:25; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Edge of the Pond^ Standing on the edge of the pond, the glorious fountain is straight ahead of you. The water it tosses into the air is clean and clear and looks very refreshing on this hot day. The grass you are standing on is perfectly manicured. To the northwest is a small island in the water. It looks as though there are a few boats lying around on the shore that you could take if you felt like canoeing. ^ 17 s:16 n:18 w:24; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful OnWater } In the Fountain^ Oops... you seem to have steered your canoe into the park's fountain. Luckily, the only damage you seem to have done is to completely soak yourself. Now your troubles lie in trying to get your boat free of the strong current pulling you toward the fountain base. ^ 18 s:17 w:23 n:19; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful OnWater } On the Pond^ You steer your boat to the northern side of the pond. You are just east of the island just north of the fountain. You feel little specks of water landing on you from the fountain, but you are not getting all that wet. The water feels good in the heat of the summer. ^ 19 n:20 s:18 w:22 e:8; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern east-west path through St. James Park. To the east is the northern park entrance, and to the west is the expanse of the park. The park meets Buckingham Palace to the west. To the south is a pond with a large fountain in it. Beyond the pond is a grassy place specked with trees and people. The path is lined on both sides by green park benches. ^ 20 s:19 w:21 e:7; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are on the northern edge of the park. To the north of here is a large street and another section of the city which leads to the Buckingham Palace area. You can just make out the palace through the trees to the west. ^ 21 e:20 w:34 s:22; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are along the northern area of the park. To the north of here is a large street which goes to Buckingham Palace. There are many people walking along the street, and you notice that, in contrast to the rest of the city, no one walking there is in any hurry. To the south is a beautiful pond with a fountain in it. There is a bridge over the pond. The whole park is very beautiful and serves as a relaxing change from the city. ^ 22 n:21 s:23 e:19 w:33; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern east-west path through the park. To the south of the pond you can make out another path, accessible via a bridge that spans the middle of the pond just off to the southwest. To the west is Buckingham Palace, while to the east is the park entrance with the city beyond. On the south side of the pond is a large grassy area. ^ 23 n:22 s:24 w:37 e:18; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } On the Island^ Your boat has reached a little island in the pond. Somehow, the grass here is cut and as well-manicured as the rest of the park. The grounds crew must have an easier way over than yours. You disembark to enjoy some quiet time in the sun. ^ 24 n:23 s:25 e:17 w:38; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful OnWater } On the Pond^ Drifting near the fountain, you get a good view of its set up. There are many jets tossing water into the air, forming a striking pattern in the air. You feel a little mist from the fountain landing on you, but you are not really getting wet. In fact, the mist feels good on this hot day. ^ 25 n:24 w:39 s:26 e:16; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } The Edge of the Pond^ The pond is just beyond your toes now. Directly to the west is the bridge which spans the pond to meet with another path on the northern side. ^ 26 n:25 s:27 e:15 w:29; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the main east-west path through St. James Park. To the northwest is a bridge which spans the pond. To the west is Buckingham Palace, while to the east is the main park entrance with the city beyond. To the south is a large grassy space. The fountain is very close to you now, spitting its water into the air with impeccable grace. ^ 27 n:26 e:14 w:28; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are in the southern area of the park, surrounded by tall shade trees. Many of the trees have people sitting under them, protecting themselves from the summer sun while they hold their conversations. You hear Big Ben chime the hour and wonder how long you have been in the park. ^ 28 e:27 w:41 n:29; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ Standing along the southern fence of St. James Park, you can see straight ahead to the bridge over the pond. The fountain is a little off to the east. To the west your view is obscured by the trees. ^ 29 s:28 w:40 e:26 n:30; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the southern east-west path through the park. To the north a bridge leads over the pond to join with another path on the northern side. The path you are on continues back to the east and to the west to Buckingham Palace. Just to the south is a green park bench. ^ 30 s:29 n:31; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } On the Bridge^ You have decided to cross over to the other side of the pond. The water below is clean and clear. You can even see fish in it. Someone is canoeing on the pond off to the east. ^ 31 s:30 n:32; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } On the Bridge^ You are in the middle of the bridge which spans the pond. The water below is clean and clear. There are people talking under the trees to the south, and some people on benches to the north. One person is canoeing toward the pond's small island in the pond. To the west is a great photo opportunity of Buckingham Palace. ^ 32 s:31 n:33; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } On the Bridge^ You have decided to cross over to the other side of the pond. The water below is clean and clear. You can even see fish in it. Over to the east someone is paddling a canoe toward the small island in the pond. Beyond him, children are wading. ^ 33 s:32 e:22 w:36 n:34; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern east-west path through St. James Park. To the south a bridge spans the pond and joins with another path on the southern side. The path you are on continues back to the east and to the west to Buckingham Palace. Just to the north is a green park bench. ^ 34 s:33 e:21 w:35; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ Traveling along the northern edge of the park, you study the people walking on the street. They are all headed toward the palace, and most of them are holding cameras and other objects which mark them as tourists. You hear many languages among the group. It seems that a good portion of the world is in London for the V-E Day Celebrations. ^ 35 e:34 w:48 s:36; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are near the western entrance to the park, along the northern wall. Just to the south is the northern path through the park. You can get a clear view of most of the park from here: the fountain and island to the east, the grass to the south, and the street to the north. ^ 36 n:35 s:37 w:47 e:33; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern path through the park, northwest of the bridge. To the south is the pond, and the street is out of the park to the north. You can reach the street by continuing to the west and leaving through the north entrance. ^ 37 n:36 s:38 e:23 w:46; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ You are floating just to the west of the bridge over the pond. The island is just to the eastern side of the bridge, with the fountain slightly beyond it. Beyond them both is a well-populated wading area. The water is smooth and clean. The pond itself ends to the west at the Palace wall. ^ 38 n:37 s:39 e:24 w:45; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ You are just to the west of the center of the bridge. Your view of the Palace is obscured by its tall fence. To the east is the fountain. On the paths at the edges of the pond, people are walking and talking. ^ 39 e:25 n:38 s:40 w:44; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are just south of the pond and just north of the main pathway through the park. To the south is a large grassy clearing. Just to the east, a bridge rises up out of the earth to span the pond. The bridge joins the path you are standing near to another on the northern side. ^ 40 n:39 e:29 s:41 w:43; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the main path through the park, near the western end of it all. To the northeast is the splendid bridge over the water. Straight ahead to the west, the park ends in a nasty-looking fence which joins with the Palace gardens. ^ 41 n:40 w:42 e:28; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ Along the southern border of the park, you can look through the trees and light wrought-iron fence into the city. The buildings near you are all rather old and have a lot of character. You can hear the sounds of the city not far off. There seems to be major construction work underway near the Abbey. ^ 42 e:41 w:55 n:43; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are near the western edge of the park. Off to the west, the park ends where it meets the fence of the Palace gardens. You can see a bit of the garden through the ivy growing on the fence, but your view is pretty much obstructed. ^ 43 s:42 e:40 w:54 n:44; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are almost at the western edge of the pond. To the south is the grassy area, while to the north, the pond is phasing out. ^ 44 s:43 n:45 e:39 w:53; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are just south of the pond and east of the western gate of the park. The wall near you which divides this area from the palace gardens is rather nasty-looking. To the north is the exit from the park to the palace. The rest of the city is way back toward the east. ^ 45 s:44 n:46 e:38 w:52; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ You are floating near the western side of the pond. To the west the pond dies out in a pool of algae. ^ 46 e:37 s:45 w:51 n:47; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ You are nearing the western side of the pond. Near you is a fountain, much smaller than the other main fountain on the other side of the pond. Looming to the west is a gigantic wall. ^ 47 n:48 s:46 e:36 w:50; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ You are on the northern path through the park, west of the bridge. To the south the pond is coming to and end, meeting with a tall and unfriendly- looking fence around the gardens of the Palace. To the north, people are walking toward the palace, which is decked out in its full splendour for the V-E Day Celebrations. ^ 48 e:35 w:49 s:47; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are very near the northern entrance to the park. You are almost out on the street, among the crowd. They all seem to be moving toward the palace grounds. Perhaps you should follow them. ^ 49 e:48 s:50; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ Here the path joins a sidewalk which runs along the street to Buckingham Palace. The rest of the park is to the south and east. ^ 50 n:49 e:47 s:51; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ The western exit from the park is just to the north, following a slender sidewalk onto the street. The street heads to the front of Buckingham Palace. Way ahead, you can just tell that the flag is flying over the palace, indicating the presence of the Queen. ^ 51 n:50 e:46 s:52; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ Here the pond ends, near the gardens of Buckingham Palace. You can go no further to the west. The entire park is now to the east. All you can see is green on either side of the pond. Ahead the bridge rises above the water, and you can see a bit of the island underneath it. ^ 52 e:45 n:51 s:53; lflags { Outdoors OnWater Peaceful } On the Pond^ Here the pond ends, near the gardens of Buckingham Palace. You can go no further to the west. The entire park is now to the east. All you can see is green on either side of the pond. Ahead the bridge rises above the water, and you can see a bit of the island underneath it. ^ 53 n:52 e:44 s:54; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are up against the western wall of the park. It seems to be several feet thick. At the top of the wall are rotating 6-inch spikes, each at an angle to the one next to it. To climb over the wall, one would have to have a lot of faith in one's flexibility. Perhaps it is best if you leave the Queen alone. ^ 54 n:53 e:43 s:55; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } Path Through St. James Park^ The path through the park meets its end at the fence to the Palace Gardens. Here too, the grassy lawns stop and the pond ends. It seems your only choices are to either head back east, or to the northwestern exit. ^ 55 n:54 e:42; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are in the very southwestern corner of the park. The beauty of it spreads to the east. To your west is a huge and unfriendly-looking wall, disguised with flowers and the like. ^ 56 n:1 w:13; lflags { Outdoors Peaceful } St. James Park^ You are standing south of the southern path through St. James Park, just next to the bordering fence. The lawn you are on is scattered with large shade trees. Otherwise, the immaculate lawn is uninterrupted. There are people here and there, holding conversations beneath the trees. ^
