I’ve been meaning for ages to take N to Virginia Water. It’s somewhere we used to go as children and I knew it would look beautiful in Autumn.
Of course N moaned. Â His legs were tired. He wanted his bike and scooter. Â He was bored.
His two highlights…picking a lot of sweet chestnuts (still to be roasted) and the cascades. Â I don’t know what it is about waterfalls (even manmade ones), but they’re lovely to sit and watch.
N was enthralled with them, and was happy to sit and watch while I could take lots of photos.  He didn’t even moan about me taking photos of him.  It’s rare that I get a decent smile, and he just turned round to tell me something he thought was funny here, so it was a proper happy smile  of laughter.

What a sweet photo! We found loads of chestnuts on our walk this week too (the which my camera ran out of battery BOO).
Oh that’s so annoying when batteries run out. I always take a spare because mine goes from 2 to 0 so quickly.
Tonnes of sweet chestnuts we’ve seen this year, nearly as many as the apples we have
Virginia Water is literally on our doorstep. It’s our closest place for a walk and I absolutely love it there – the cascades are definitely beautiful! Such a lovely happy photo x
Thanks Donna. I was really pleased with it. It was a total deja vu moment, because I’ve got photos of my brother and I stood and sat there with our nan.
