The last thing you want to see at the parking at the start of a walk!
But Olivia finds us a verge without No Parking signs and we're in business.
This is the cause of the problem
And these are the festival-goers.
The ones our side of the fence seem very interested as well.
Spotted orchid
Fields of wheat
We avoid being sprayed
But it makes a nice geometric pattern
Cranesbills by the roadside
We pause in the cemetery in Leighterton, where the Australian pilots are buried
We aren't invited to the birthday party, nor to use the bouncy castle in the back garden.
We pass the church
And the pub
And leave Leighterton between the houses
Entering a field of wheat
With a good path that stretches forever
And continues into the barley.
Poppies in this field
Into the Arboretum - what is this, strapped to the tree?
And we can't identify this clump of flowers either.
Under the Westonbirt Walkway
Made with giant pencils
David is befriended by this dog
The end of the Walkway
Past lovely gardens in Westonbirt village
And the school.
We cross the fields which take us back to the Hare and Hounds.
