Pure Tahiti By Paul Gauguin - Regent Seven Seas Cruises
|
The intimate Paul Gauguin is the only luxury cruise ship specifically designed to cruise the South Pacific. Her 7-night voyages sail year-round from Papeete to four of the most enchanting jewels in the Society Islands.
Is there any group of islands in the world as romantic as the Society Islands? Or as beautiful, for that matter? Doubtful. They inspired a mutiny on the infamous Bounty. They captured the imagination of Paul Gauguin. They've been immortalized by some of the world's great writers from Herman Melville, Robert Louis Stevenson and James Michener to Somerset Maugham. These sirens of the South Pacific evoke balmy days, sultry nights and panoramas that could only have been created by Nature in her finest hour. Here giant curls of turquoise break onto reefs that protect blue lagoons and white beaches. Jagged peaks crown emerald rain forests, while some islands appear barely to float above the breaking waves. But what truly distinguishes French Polynesia is the people. On our South Pacific cruises, you'll see their love for these islands through music, dance and flowers. Their hospitality is legend.

The Regent Street Shuffle
|
Shot the same day as the Oxford Street footage - a ride down Regent Street on my way to Shaftesbury Avenue. Most of Oxford Street is prohibited for cars but Regent Street is one of the main thoroughfares into the West End and is always solid. I can't believe people sit in this stuff... |

Hamleys Toys Sports Store 188 -196 Regent Street London W1
|
William Hamley a Cornishman from Bodmin first opened a toy shop in London in 1760.
William cramped his Holborn shop with every toy he could find; rag dolls, tin soldiers, hoops and wooden horses, because he wanted the finest toy shop in the world and compared it to the 'Noah's Ark'.
In 1881, William Hamley's grandsons opened a new branch in Regent Street, not far from Piccadilly Circus.
By the end of Queen Victoria's reign, croquet sets, cricket bats, footballs, marionettes, magic lanterns and model sailing boats filled the stores packed shelves.
By now the shop's reputation had become very well known and Jaques and Sons asked if they could launch their new 'Gossima, ping pong' game, exclusively through Hamleys, which they christened after the noise made by the bouncing white celluloid ball. Not until 1921 did it officially become Table Tennis.
In 1931 their desire to provide the world's best selection of toys and games finally threatened to close Hamleys altogether. Its fleet of horse drawn delivery vans were still at work each day when the economic depression across Europe forced the shop into liquidation.
Hamleys was saved by a man who had ridden on the delivery vans as a boy, Walter Lines chairman of the Tri-Ang company, who bought it and rebuilt its reputation.
In 1938 he was rewarded with the Royal Warrant from Queen Mary. Her granddaughters, the young Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose, both had Hamleys toys in their nursery. The new Queen Elizabeth II had not forgotten her own childhood companions. Both Prince Charles and Princess Anne received toys from Hamleys and, in 1955, her Majesty honored Walter Lines with his second Royal Warrant as a 'Toys and Sports Merchant'.
Hamleys became as much a London attraction as Buckingham Palace or The British Museum. Nowhere was the magic of childhood so precisely captured. And as toys changed, so did Hamleys; in 1981 it moved to 188 -196 Regent Street, still the biggest toy shop in the world.
In 1994 Hamleys of London Ltd. was listed on the London Stock Exchange and became Hamleys plc. It remained a public company for 9 years until 2003 when, with the support of Baugur, the Iceland based retail group, Hamleys management team took the company private.
Today, Spiderman is showcased with tomorrow's latest games and toys.
