Staying close

A whole row of bug hotels
I don't have to go far to find some nice walks, but the walks in my neighbourhood are always similar or the same to each other, so I decided that today I would get the car out and drive. Although still not too far, it was only a fifteen minute drive and I had arrived. I had put it in my head that the walk would be about 8,5 km, which of course was wrong. When I checked right before I took my first step, it was supposed to be 6,7 km.

Either way, the walk was lovely. It led me through a small village and its pretty nice outskirts. Some wooded areas and back into the village. On the way I had a spot of lunch, forgot my camera on a fence post and had to trace back my steps, saw some goslings (farm, not wild) and the cutest little pony baby. I mean, it was like there was a massive arrow over its head saying: CUTE!

A friend of mine is always going out walking and finding ice creams all over the country side. Not sure how she does it. Although today I did see a farm shop selling ice cream (among others), I had only just finished my lunch and wasn't feeling like it. Yet. Because once I got back to the village there was ice cream to be had. White chocolate and raspberry. A good end to a lovely walk.

  8. The ice cream looks like a good combination. I don't know how it tasted but it is good visually.
