The Gallery – A Happy Memory

I was looking for baby photos of my children for today’s entry to The Gallery over at the wonderful, Sticky Fingers blog, when I came across some photos from our honeymoon. We had a lovely time so I’ve picked the following photos to show one of my very happy memories ๐Ÿ™‚

We stayed at York Lakeside Lodges and it was definitely the right destination for us. The lodge was lovely and as the name suggests, it looked out onto a huge lake.
There were ducks and geese roaming everywhere and as we went in May, there were lots of baby ducks and geese to ooooh and awwww over!

We also had a squirrel visitor who would come right up to the window and have a peek inside!

We visited a few different places during the week, including lavender farms, Holmfirth, where Last of the Summer Wine was filmed and took drives through the Yorkshire moors and dales.
The scenery was beautiful and we took lots of photos. I’m a big fan of natural waterways and there were loads of streams and rivers. We had to keep stopping the car so we could enjoy the views and take yet more photos!

 
 

It was a lovely relaxing week and I’ve really enjoyed looking through all the photos to find just the right ones to include in this post ๐Ÿ™‚

    Thank you Linda ๐Ÿ™‚ We didn't actually go into York itself, we preferred the peace and quiet part!

    Brilliant pictures, you can tell what a great time you must have had – so peaceful and stunning. When I think of York I think of a built up and historical city so it's lovely to see another side, loving the visitors in the first pic.
