Winter walk at Western Springs

Trace and I came here last Saturday, for a walk, and Helen joined us when she found out! Western Springs was full of people and families and ducks and geese, but all spread over this pleasant lakey parkland. Trace is sitting in one of the many chunky wood seats facing the view.and here's another chunky seat and sitter, facing the prospect of my sister coming up and over the next hill to join us.
the FIRST thing we did was go to the entry to the Zoo and the cafe that's there and enjoy a fortifying coffee first.
and then we couldn't believe our eyes when we saw a Sheep family arrive to go to the zoo. Yep, that's Dad in the black sheep outfit, Mum in the white, and the little lamb in white to the left hand side. Cute and brave of them amongst all us wolves.
then the real walk began, and Helen and I are silhuetted against a winter tree.



Nice way to clear the head and get some exercise.

lovely to be out in the crisp weather...we won't have any of that for a few months yet.
