Come for a Walk

I'm going for a Saturday stroll.
I'm doing my hill walk.
Want to come?
It only takes 20mins, come on!


Pretty rain covered purple flower in our street.


Another pretty flower on the side of the road.

Nice view from the end of our street, shame about the ugly power lines!


The highway runs right through town, aka the take-away junk food strip.

I love these two houses at the top of our hill.
I imagine they were fairly similar when they were built.
Love how they've been renovated completely differently.

The blue one is my favourite.

The view of our town from the top of the hill.

We'll be walking up this street soon, yes we will!

But for now we're walking down this one.

At the bottom, looking back up.

This field was completely under water during the flood.

OK, up we go.
Come on, don't wimp out on me now!

Half way up.
This house is cute, notice the angle of the street!

Made it to the top.
YES!

Now back down to our street.

A fallen frangipani


Who said geraniums are boring?
I love the colour.

A beautiful hibiscus

The house on the corner of our street.
I wish it was my house!

Our street...

...with it's crazy high road/low road.
Home!! 
Did you enjoy the walk?
I hope you're hot and sweaty now.
I am!

  8. I think that was an amazing walk .. And can I pinch the idea.. And maybe tho' you could see who'd be interested in a linked-in thingy to, say
    "let's go for a walk"
    I
    Love
    The
    Walk
    And all the scenes & flowers & houses helped me know you better too.. I can see now why the floods didn't affect you as far as the house was concerned.
    You love all same flowers I do.. And you too found the beauty in the architecture, the angles, design & more!
    Wow! So good. Mind you, I'd be very very puffed out .. Xxx
