There's a lot to see and do in 1 day in Nottingham, from the castle to the Robin Hood statue and all the secret streets and tunnels.
Today I did another bus tour, this one taking me to Blenheim Palace and three towns in the Cotswolds. The area is breathtaking. The thatched-roof limestone houses together with all the rolling hills and farm animals makes this place an absolute treat to visit. Our tour guide, Sue, was a hoot. She was that "cheeky

It has been on my mind for weeks now, to thank you for the kind comments you left on my blog. They brighten up my day! A big kiss to you all! When in England, one of my favourite pastimes, beside roaming charity shops and discovering secret and not so secret gardens, is to go for a country walk. The huge network of public footpaths never fails to impress me. We do have many beautiful walks in Holland, but only few of them have Public Right of Way. It's so much more fun walking cross country, instead of tarmac roads. We walked part of the Gloucestershire way, Macmillan way and Cotswold way. Through meadows of wild flowers and quaint looking villages. Past derelict farmhouses, foraging geese, haunted mansions and country gardens full of stocks. However, "the piece de resistance" of our walks was the Duck race in Bourton on the Water. It brought back lots of good memories :-)!! Wish you all a wonderful weekend! I hope the weather will be fine enough to spend outdoors. LOVE, Madelief x
