Another fab walk, a friend of ours organised a walk with a few of our mutual friends in a woodland near Canterbury, Kent. We went to blean nature reserve and had a nice Autumnal walk through the woods, played on the rope swings with the kids and climbed all over some fallen trees.

As much as I wanted a go on the rope swing I didn't risk it, I am that clumsy friend that always falls off things, like kids climbing frames and rope swings so thought I wouldn't risk it this weekend haha (there's only so many times you can fall off of things without breaking something). 

Theres that beautiful feeling in the air that I love about this time of year, that fresh clean feeling in the air that lets us all know that winters nearly here... In fact today is the last day of October which for me always feels like the end of autumn (I know its not - but it always feels that way to me)

Hope you all had a fab October - here's to November and to lots more adventures...

Autumn Walks (Betteshanger)

         

Sunday 8th October... Early afternoon.

Luke and I love a good walk, for as long as we've known each other walks have always been a vital part of life, weather walking for practical reasons (to get the train or into town). Or for fun... I know walking isn't for most people but for us it sorts everything out, If you're feeling a bit pants a good walk will sort you out. 

My favourite time of year is Autumn by far, Winter is definitely up there too. One of the things that makes this time of year so special are the many walks that our family do this time of year, Its a very nostalgic feeling for me going for a walk.

We went to the area of Northbourne which is near where I grew up and used to spend alot of time here, my Auntie and Uncle had their Wedding reception in the village hall here. I feel such a sense of peace when I'm in this area. The leaves were changing colour, conkers had fallen from the trees, acorns and pine cones were everywhere. It was perfect.

       

                          

We stopped of as we neared the car and had a cup of coffee, Luke brewed up on his little Coleman stove we both agree that this stove was one of the best things we've ever bought. As he brewed up I had a little explore and found the conker trees, and this view across the fields was beautiful. The different shades of yellow, green and orange always make me appreciate how beautiful the trees really are.

Hope you all had a fab weekend and Monday was good to you! Have a good rest of the week. See you soon.
