Bright wintery day

 
Several weeks ago my sweet friend Kathleen and I went on a forest walk on a beautiful sunny but cold day.
I love bright sunshiny days, the brightness makes everything feel better

We walked around a forest that neither of us had ever been to before, so that made it very exciting. We came across a tiny chapel with an old couple inside who were doing the cleaning, they stopped us and invited us in and proceeded to tell us all about the local history of the area. It was a lovely chat but we were both worried about the fact that it was quickly getting dark and we were only half way through our walk
 Part of the footpath consisted of a frozen stream so it felt like we were climbing a glacier. The sun set before we finished so we ended our walk in the slightly spooky darkness. I fell asleep on the way home, which, surely is the mark of a good day.
