Bunting, Bells and Boats


I've found it very difficult to get back into the way of blogging

after being away for what seems an age.

It's been doubly difficult just trying to post the photos in the order that I want them!

So here goes with some photos I took last weekend.





I took a drive along the valley to a town

where I thought there would be a wine festival.

Yes it's that time of year again.

There are wine festivals every weekend at the moment

somewhere along the river.

 

A nice way to see the river is on one of the many pleasure boats.

Particularly on such a lovely sunny day.

 

I walked up from the river into the town

which in places seemed quite deserted.

I could hear some bells

and rounded a corner to see the cause,

and this is where I found the wine festival,

tucked away in a small square. 

It was quite low key,

but I imagine that it would come alive in the evening.

 



As I left the square

this pretty window caught my eye,

and these colourful flags.

Back down to the river.

A lone fisherman,

and one of the many bridges across the river.

 

Looking across the river,

one lone tree was quite striking

in it's autumnal plumage.

I was quite tempted by this cafe,

maybe next time.

I had to get back home

to take the hounds out for their walk.

And what a lovely walk it was too.

 

Well, that took longer than usual,

looks like I need some practice!

 

Now I just need to get back to visiting all my blogging friends,

which I've sadly neglected.

Hope to see you soon.
