Green

I could never understand why people referred to England as a green and pleasant land, that is until we left! Whilst Denmark is a darker green, with lots of blues, browns and yellows inbetween, England is definitely green, a glorious bright and vibrant green! Even it's biggest cities are packed with trees and parks, and it really is a different shade to anywhere else I have been...

I took this picture of one of my most favourite things, in my mother's village at the weekend (more of our trip home later!). This magnificent chestnut tree, the biggest for miles around, stands proud in the corner of the churchyard. I wonder how many weddings, christenings and funerals it has witnessed over the years? I did give it a hug on the way out...no really!
