We are slowly settling into our new home, still sorting through boxes and unpacking which takes a lot longer than you think it will when you're also working full time! This pic is taken from our bathroom window across 'our' park which we walk through and in on an almost daily basis. The leaves on the trees throughout the park have now unfurled and everything has the beautiful newness of spring, untainted by dust or pollution. Walking through the park your ears are filled with the sounds of bird song, children laughing and playing, dogs barking, happy conversation, it is such a peaceful place to sit and read, or to laze in the afternoon sun at the weekend in the walled cafe with a mellow cup or coffee. It feels really good living here, coming home here at the end of the day. We haven't even started the redecorating yet, and we don't own a sofa or proper table yet either, but I can see the end result in mind and know we'll get there...
