Nature walks here coupled with the low humdity is awesome
Even the weather's great too!
Horseshoe lake in the bright
Shaun approves of the great views
Apparently you need a permit to fish here though
Cattle & horse keeps
There are many Ungulate holds in the area
So as the name of the place suggests, we saw many horse riders along the roads too
Besides horses, there are few of the feathery kind
who seem to go real well with the fanastic lake views
Tried feet & muddy shoes are just a side effect. :P
Checking out Farnborough
Courtesy of my uncle who was free of the day
And collect some train tickets at the same time
Few of the big malls here
Kingmead, queensmead, now princesmead!
The shopping strip
There's a Nokia HQ here too!
Woot jet streams.
Omg, the lake is frozen!
Ice sure is shiny!
These boats won't be going anywhere too soon
Oh we are in Basingstoke?
Mmm trail.. icey...
Droopy trees is droopy
skinny branch is skinny
Reflective lake is reflective
The path of no return. :P
Diggin' the contrast in this neat but otherwise blurry photo
Remembered seeing a hotair balloon somewhere
This is the path which never ends yay!
Which means more sights of the same kind!
It's impossible to drown in this river, unless if you try real hard
Found the hotair ball-oon!
Now where did that bugger go?
Funky bridge thingie
Over an even more funky stream
Woo sunset already?
Frosted grass is a delicacy at this time of the year
So are swans. :P
And derelict castles
well, not just any derelict castle...
This castle, the Oaiham castle traces back to 1207
It is now restored from the ruins
XD
open wide!
Uncle Raymond reading up on it's history
2 different things, almost 800 years apart. :P
Oh white floating thingies
The people here call them swarrs or swans or something & are known to chase & devauor unattended children
