Willen Lake ~ Pagoda~ Milton Keyenes

The whole of March had been a fairly good month, in terms of the weather! Pretty much every single weekend had some shining rays upon the beautiful place that is called England!! (probably not the whole of England, but at least wherever I went!).

On the 16th of March, we visited Willen Lake, and here are some of the beautiful pics that I took :D

It looked like this was a peace tree, and reminder of the local people of Milton Keynes loved ones!

 The view from the top of the hill is beautiful !!

 The Peace Pagoda in all its sereneness.

 I love the majestic lions, protecting this Pagoda.

 I know they say never to point your camera (or even to look) directly at the sun, but who could'nt resist this awsome view!

Sooo I am a major lover of food (vegetarian of course :P)! So my family had just prepared, baguettes, a ready made salad, grated cheese (for sandwiches)!!

 Always gotta take a selfie (a bit difficult with my DSLR :P)!

The monks came walking over from the temple, which is only a few minutes walk away from the Pagoda. It's so cool to see what happens next :P

In the distance I could see, they were carrying either a phone or camera, and they were taking pictures :D This is the real deal, 21st Century monks, absolutely love it :D

 Love my nephews George the Giraffe! Such a cutie, and he takes him everywhere with him!! :P

Water skiing practice!!

OOTD A lovely walk round a resevoir

So yesturday (Sunday 9th March 2014) was our first practice walk the of year, getting ready for walk/ hike that will take place in Derbyshire, during the May Bank Holiday. It was also in preparation, for Africa's largest mountain (yes that's the one, Mount. Kilimanjaro)! We won't be climbing the whole mountain, but me and my sister will be going to the base camp and back!

The weather was perfect for a stroll, and it had been planned well! 

We also met some pug dogs on the way round, and for some reason, every time I see pug dogs nowadays, I get super excited! :P

So in the picture, I am wearing many layers, which I ended up stripping off and just sticking to my awsome Uniqlo top (which has heat retention, heat absorption, odor control properties and is stretchable and comfortable) and my Trespsass waterproof bottoms with a thermal pair of leggings underneath and obviously my boots, which are also from Trespass and they actually fit my tiny feet ;D! 

On the Car Journey home, my whole body felt like it was going to give way, but surprisingly I'm not aching at all today, although I'm only suffering from an injured calf muscle, which was from last weeks antics :D
