Bushy Park

The weather last week was much better than forecast (Eat humble pie, Evelyn, there was no rain on the parade). Good for doggie walks. Good for me. Although I like walking in the rain.

Bushy Park is ideal for us during weekends and holidays - we can be there in 10-15 minutes max. Different matter during school term, when we stay closer to home.
