After the fun morning at Borough Market, I had to make the most of my little treasures. A picnic seemed like the perfect way! Lenny and I have a useful book titled 501 Great Days Out in the UK. A quick flip through the pages, and I found a little Forest located close to Standstead airport called Hatfield Forest. We packed up the car and headed out for a day of strolling through uncharted lands!
Hatfield Forest was a royal hunting forest in the early 12th century. Now, they have made it very visitor friendly with a small road, car park, and picnic area. We went out strolling the grounds for a few hours. Lenny got to play some catch with Chula and we searched for the former site of some huge old tree. Eventually we made our way back to the picnic area and enjoyed the cheese and olives from the market. Perfect!
Since we were in the area, we headed up to a small town called Finchingfield which is believed to be the most photographed village in England. When we got to see a perfect rainbow over the town church and pond... I believed them! I think I took enough photos to maintain their claim to fame!
