Walks from the front door

I've said it before, but we are very lucky where we live. It's suburbia and there is a huge amount of traffic and the almost constant hum of the M25 in the background BUT we do have some amazing walks from our front door.
We tried a new one today which was particularly lovely along the Wey River and Wey Navigation.
We saw ducklings, goslings and cygnets; stopped for brunch along the way and generally had a very pleasant walk stretching about 6 miles, door to door. All in all a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning.

The first set of goslings 

Cygnets - from a safe distance 

Coxes Lock - once a mill, now luxury flats!

    It looks like a beautiful way to start your day. There's something about being near water that is so relaxing.

      Yes we do have some lovely walks along navigations, canals and of course the Thames :)

    Too breezy here in the North to enjoy outdoor activities!

      That's a shame, we had lots of sunshine. Hopefully, you'll have a better day today.

    That's lovely... It's great to find quiet corners of the world. I really like your first photo of the wild flowers. Jx

    Definitely a lovely way to spend a Saturday morning. Unfortunately I had to go into town to do some errands, it was far too busy for my liking, your morning would have been more my choice. X

      If only every weekend could start like that! I do try to aim to do as many jobs/chores/errands as possible before the weekend (even when I was working full time), but obviously it doesn't always work out!! Hopefully your next weekend will be more relaxing.
