Sometimes the weather not being what you wanted can bring unforseen blessings, and that's exactly what happened this autumn day last November. The plan had been to do a walk to the top of a hill with lovely views, however the low cloud and rain meant that wasn't the best idea so instead we diverted to this wonderful woodland. Coming from a place where both the climate and the vegetation offer nothing in the way of autumn colours, wandering through the woods this drizzly day felt like we'd been transported to a fairy tale kingdom. It was an absolute delight and I was like a kid in a candy store, with my only regret being we couldn't have stayed there longer.
