We didn't visit to far during Half Term, as my sister isn't able to walk anywhere, but it couldn't resist some photos of one walk we did while she was elsewhere. Paul and I have often been to Fletcher Moss Botanical Gardens which we usually enjoy, but this time took a walk of several miles by detouring first around Stenner Woods.
This is the beginning of the walk, looking like a painting by Monet or Cezanne.
There are even echoes of one of my favourites, Klimt.
It being May, there was plenty of Hawthorne blossom. Some of the trees seemed to be almost dripping with it.
I paused to take a photo of these amazing and flowers. I'm not sure what they are - lilac I presume - but I've never seen anything like them before or since.
In the Botanical Gardens themselves there were also some beautiful trees.
I thought these maples were particularly spectacular.
It was also the right season for rhododendrons, which reminded me how much I am missing by not being at home in this season
