Dogs are allowed, but on lead, although I'm sure that didn't stop Wiggle and Sofy enjoying themselves.
Start of our walk:
Some colour in the background:
Although lots of the flowers are late, there were some out already:
Wiggle, in front of the Mausoleum:
At the front:
Pretty paths to follow:
Flowering Magnolia:
(Wiggle took special interest in the Magnolia, thinking about his LucytheLab!)
The leaning tree:
Pretty flowers:
Somehow, I don't think Wiggle and Sofy enjoyed the flora quite as much as me!
This plant is apparently a Skunk Cabbage Plant!
We had a lovely walk, hardly seeing another person. It was lovely and peaceful, wandering along the different paths, in the sun and the shade. Years ago, long before Wiggle, I took my grandmother to the Rhododendron Gardens and she enjoyed it, so its a special place for me.
Back home, it was time for ice lollies!
Sir H was first:
Then it was Wiggle's turn:
Then Sofy:
"Any more?"
