Yesterday me, [info]neon_ice and my mum went to Burley Village in the New Forest to meet up with [info]dragontattooist, Alex and Kane (their doggy) ^_^ it was our first meet and the day went really well. It got pretty hot at points but luckily I was wearing a hat/bandana so it didnt effect me too bad at the time. I had an awesome time walking around the village - we also got to sit down after a while and have an awesome milkshake made with real dairy ice cream <3

Later on, we had a walk into the forest/plains. The views were gorgeous and we saw a few horses along the way (they were everywhere! They were so used to humans and traffic that they were totally relaxed walking around the village, people and vehicles). Even though the horses were all wild, some of them seemed pretty happy to just randomly approach people for a stroke.

We had to leave around 2:30pm because my mum had to get back/our parking ticket had run out. But I really enjoyed visiting Burley again after such a long time, think the last time I wetn was at least 8 years ago (if not more). So thanks again for metting up with us Kate, it was really awesome to meet you =D and thank you again for the awesome bracelet <3 I can see why they are so popular!

I took a few photos while a Burley, I would have taken more but it was hard to see the little screen when the sun was uber bright, but heres the link to the album containing the few pics that came out well:

As you can see, there is a "witchy" theme in the village, a lot of the shops sell related items. If you go to the Burley website (like above) youll find out why ;)

About a week ago it was raining, and I happened to be around to see a huge rainbow in the sky ^.^ it wasnt easy to take a photo of it with my camera but here it is (photo taken from my garden)...

Thank you ^-^ it is pretty nice, but because the village is so small it can get a bit clastrophobic if there are a lot of tourists in town o_o
