I've been away for a few days (in case you missed me!).
A friend and I have been to the New Forest. We stayed here in Lyndhurst. An absolute bargain to be honest, although we had to pay in full, up front, and there were no cancellation options. But it was perfect for us - there was no way we were going to cancel.
We did some walking. (Nurofen saw me through the painful foot bits!) Some shopping for Christmas gifts, we used the hotel pool and sauna. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the food wonderful. There may have been some wine, and there was definitely lots of chatting and a fair bit of laughter. Considering it is November, the weather was kind to us. No rain whilst we were walking, although it was very wet underfoot and it certainly rained at night.
It was a bit of a shame to come back to reality today to be honest, but I couldn't delay it any more, and Matt is singing in the Advent procession on Sunday which will be a great way to end the weekend.

What lovely photos. Such a lovely part of the country. Such a treat to get a break with friends.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a lovely break you had.
ReplyDeleteHope you have a super weekend, Helenxx
You've reminded me how gorgeous the New Forest is. I love the pictures of the pony in the stream and looking down the path through the forest, beautiful. Glad you had such a good time, a well deserved treat I think. I hope you enjoy the rest of the weekend Sara. CJ xx
ReplyDeleteI love it down there. We were in Lymington in September visiting family for a few days. Your photos are stunning. Glad you had a great break. P x
ReplyDeleteThe forest is such a lovely place isn't it. Your pictures are so beautiful Sara, and lovely to see one of you smiling and looking so happy!!! I love the one with the avenue of trees either side, that is so atmospheric and representative of this time of year. Wonderful! Glad you enjoyed it so much. xx
ReplyDeleteWonderful place, wonderful pictures :)
ReplyDeleteYour photos are gorgeous. I sometimes think the English countryside looks more beautiful in the winter months, when it's misty and grey. I love the photo of you smiling and holding a large glass of wine, you look very happy! x
