Wrap Up Warm, Wellies On


I thought you might like to see another of our favourite walks, this time down past the fishing pond and across the Great Eau to the far bank where we will meander along to the fields of Belleau.




Come on, Gran!

This river feeds into the local trout farm and has private fishing rights. It makes for a wonderful walk - or, as Harry preferred to call it today 'A Bear Hunt', with hungry trolls under all the bridges. Luckily we met neither.
In the last couple of weeks they have done a lot of tree work along here, so we wanted to see the results.

We plodged through the mud, much to Harry's delight.Past the tiny cottage with the bright red door.On around the bend in the river, until we could see Belleau in the distance.You can just see the lovelyBelleau Church Towerin the distance, with the old dovecote in the foreground.No trolls under this one!Small signs of spring everywhere.(Unfortunately I forgot my specs, so we were back to point and click, sorry)Then we found a lovely muddy puddle to wash our wellies, before going home!
