A visit to the Lavender fields - My Sunday Photo

I took a trip to the Lavender Fields in the Cotswolds this week.

It cost £4 entry, there were toilets and take away food and drinks available and they're open until July 16th. There's no booking required and dogs are welcomed.

Benches have been set apart to allow people to picnic to comply with social distancing measures. I took Bob's long leash as everyone dashed back to their cars due to the rain.

I was wearing a waterproof coat, trousers and wellington boots.

I was still soaked to the skin, but we had a fab time visiting.

  8. Now that is the smile of someone who was well prepared (even if you still got wet), as everyone else rushed back to their cars! How absolutely gorgeous though! I love the colour purple, but a whole field of it? Beautiful! A shame you couldn't really smell them (just seen your response above). Hope you are having a lovely week! Sim x
