I am sat here trying to recover from a gargantuam walk. "Let's nip up to town?" says I.
Problem is that once you've got to town (which is only a ten minute walk away), it's incredibly easy to nip to the park because it's only a few hundred yards from the town centre. It's a lovely, meandering, Victorian park. And it meanders down to the beach. Which is absolutely brilliant and we all love walking along the pier and plopping pebbles in the sea. There's just one problem with walking down to the beach…
…you have to come back up again!
However, as it is a beautiful day with an azure sky, wispy clouds and a warming Autumn sun, it was a really enjoyable walk along some of the very affluent areas of our seaside, Victorian town. One of the best bits about our town is the plethora of tree-lined avenues, giving an abundance of leaves. After the dry weather this week they were fantastically crunchy and inviting for a three year old little boy.

Emma says
Looks like fun! We have loads of leaves in the garden and the kids take great delight in running through them whenever I try to clear them up
Hannah says
Oh lovely… your description of your walk… and a beach.. oh I am jealous! Fun fall!
Elaine Livingstone says
I love kicking my way through piles of leaves. Have to resist the urge when the gardeners have been round blowing them into piles ready to pick up….I could undo all their good work in 5 seconds and walk off all innocent
Nikki Thomas says
I love the last photo – a great action shot! A is loving the leaves too she can't resist running through them and kicking them everywhere!

gorgeous pictures of a beautiful boy who is growing up very quickly!
Red Rose Mummy says
Ah, the Boy looks to be enjoying himself there. Bud has discovered the joy of crunching through the leaves too. His Nana was less than impressed when he waded through a neatly swept pile which was waiting to be picked up outside her house today! He had lots of fun doing it though.

The leaves are falling like confetti here at Coombe Mill, we will be on family leaf clear up tomorrow with much play like The Boy along the way I'm sure! Thank you for sharing and well done on your hike up from the beach, it's good to be physically tired and not just mentally drained sometimes.
Domestic Goddesque says
YOu do take such great pictures. I can't wait until he's old enough to look back on this blog and see how many wonderful things- big and little- that you did with him!
Mummy Liz says
Whenever we go for walks I always walk too far, it all seems so close when your in the car!
Tammy says
