Having a day off together is very rare for Alex and I so when they do come around we love to make the most of them. We decided on this very fine Sunday that we would go to the New Forest as we haven't actually been together. We woke up early enough to make the most of the day but late enough to call it a lye in. Listening to music and getting ready we headed out around midday. The sun was shining and the temperature was lovely. Firstly we stopped in a small little town called Lyndhurst. We strolled around and then stopped for some lunch at The Greenwood Tree. We had bacon and brie panini's and a scone with cream and jam each.
Feeling very full we then drove into the New Forest. We stopped off at the side of the road and wondered off onto the green where we saw plenty of horses. It's so amazing to be surrounded by animals that's not at a zoo or something similar. We drove on and ended up stopping again this time to walk around a wood. We jumped, ran and skipped, climbed trees and kicked pine cones to each other. I felt like a child again and it was so fun. Carrying on our drive we stopped at the side of the road to look at some donkeys when one came over and stuck his head into the window. It was hilarious and I loved every moment because I love donkey's. We had one more pit stop at Pig Bush for one last walk before heading home. It was such a great day and I would recommend the New Forest to anyone who just wants a lovely day out that consists of nature, a good walk for exercise and the animals really do make it something that more spectacular. Not to mention priceless.
