In to the Wild

The weekend before last, back when we were enjoying the mini heatwave that engulfed England Ben and I decided to hop on our bikes and cycle to a bit of local area we were yet to explore. It’s a long time since I was able to just hop on a bike and go anywhere, and longer still since I was then able to walk for a few hours through hilly woodland terrain…the combination of my recent achievement, the glorious weather and quality time with the boyfriend taking in stunning views made for the best Sunday I’ve had in ages.
We packed up a picnic, slapped on some suncream and headed off, camera in tow to Limebreach Wood where we followed parts of two nature trails. Another time we are going in the opposite direction and visiting Cadbury Camp, a glorious area rich in local history- but that’s another day, for now here are just a few of the hundreds of photos we took.
There’s nothing like taking in the beauty of nature, whilst watching a foal chasing it’s Mother around a field to make you appreciate life. With a healthy mind and body at long last, and a yearning to be outside, discovering what the local area has to offer, I really cannot wait for more adventures like this one. If you want to see a bigger version of any of the photos then just click on them.
How well do you know your local area? I’m lucky in that we’re surrounded by places just like this one…spoilt for choice and no longer taking it for granted. Ben may regret this though, as I stand making him take endless photos of said horse and foal, moaning about stinging nettles and walking in to tree branches.
