The biggest buzz—or should I say quack—came from a spontaneous “Duck Parade”. Yes, you read that right. A local wildlife group decided to lead a small army of ducks across the bridge to celebrate the reopening of a nearby pond.
Imagine the sight: dozens of waddling ducks, a few dogs on leashes trying to be friends, and tourists losing their minds with phone cameras. It was like a flash mob, but cuter and with more feathers. Honestly, it was the most peaceful traffic jam London has seen in years.
The “Chalk It Up” Protest
Right alongside the duck parade, a group of artists set up a sidewalk chalk protest. Not for politics, but for more public art spaces in the city. They covered the pavement with giant, colorful drawings of bridges, ravens, and even a giant teapot.
Why a teapot? I asked one of the artists, and she just shrugged and said, “Because London is better with tea and chaos.” Fair point. The cool part? The chalk was completely washable, so by evening, the bridge looked like a giant coloring book had a party and then took a bath.
