Spring walking

Spring has finally sprung here in the UK and we took advantage of it to walk the Godalming Circular walk.

This one took a bit to get out of town, but once we were it was lovely - felt really remote and quiet which is unusual for a walk in Surrey - that tends to often still feel very urban.

And the daffs were out! So lovely :-)

Daffs!

First walk of 2011

Headed out with Jackie, Nicola and Sarah to do the first walk of the year - an easy 10 miles in Surrey, not far down the track from me.

This took us past Polesden Lacey where we had a very nice lunch. Didn't go into the house tho - wanted to make sure we could get the walk done while there was still enough light in the day. It was a nice walk - nothing really outstanding. As I've commented before, walking in Surrey often means you don't feel like you are getting that far away from civilization as you see the world out walking their dogs...

But it was great to get out, stretch the legs and get some fresh air and catch up with everyone about their Xmas and New Year!
