Spring signs in Castle Combe...
Our sunny walk last Sunday, described in my last post, ended up in one of my favourite villages around here, in postcard perfect Castle Combe (I have posted MANY photos from here before, please look under Castle Combe in Categories in the column to the right).
Every time I stroll up and down the main road here, I admire and envy the ancient doors, the stonework, the many not so straight angles...
On weekends, visitors from near and far come to enjoy the beauty of this little gem, and what could be nicer than to "hang out" by the old market place, perhaps sipping a drink of one's choice, lapping up the sun...
The swans seemed to enjoy the tentative signs of spring too...
The beautiful cemetery offering its long-term guests a little floral feast...
And here they are, my boys, still in winter coats and hats, as the air was still a little chilly...
And yes, this may perhaps be a pot that is not particularly spectacular at first glance, but its colour explosion, lovely tulip buds and the fact that the little petal ensemble is in the Swedish colours, well, I think these are valid reasons for a little spring-y Swenglish cheer!
Wishing you a lovely and colourful weekend!
