These were all taken in the wonderland that is formerly known as Painshill Park. I went there a couple of weeks ago with my grandparents and my sister- the two of us set off on a little 'Narnia' adventure all around the park after having a picnic with our Nani and Grandad, sat by the river in the dappled sunshine! :)

Here are a selection of the photos that I took while we wandered about the park together. (Sorry that there are so many of them, haha!) After the first 'title' photo, they're all in the same order as I took them, so I suppose, in a way, you can see our day and the story behind each photo. It's a really beautiful and fun place, and if you ever find yourself with a free day, head over to Cobham and you'll find this magical land! I last went there when I was about 6 or 7 years old, and coming back again, it was like skipping along Memory Lane, seeing each landscape in all its glory just like I'd remembered it from all those years ago. As we walked along, I became happy-hyper with all the nostalgia and I think I told a couple of stories to my little sister about when we'd last been... she soon joined me in a state of hyperactive happiness and we laughed and gosspied and scared one another as we strolled around! It was all just the same as before, nothing had changed, not even after all those years ♥

It really is wonderful place, and it was an even more wonderful day. I hope you like my photos and that you've had a lovely day/evening! :)

i've got sunshine on a cloudy day,

I have lots of new photos to share with you all (whoever you may be), and I'll upload them either this week or next week, whenever I have enough time that isn't supposed to full of revision and doing coursework.

I started my exams on Tuesday, this week, and I've now finished my French Speaking exam and am halfway through my final Photography prject (which I am so behind on, dun dun duuunn!!) It's all rather nerve-racking at the moment. Also, I realised that on Friday, I had exactly one month until I have completely finished with college. For forever- college = finito/ adios/ au revoir/ good day to you/ hasta la byebye! :) I cannot wait to be free, I really hope this summer will be full of happiness and memoires with my friends before we all disperse across England and Wales... (sniff :'( ohh)

Well, anyway, as I was saying, I'll post a few photo posts soon, and write some more of my thoughts and whatnot, however dull they may be. Hope you're all well and happy ♥ I'm off now to eat my pasta and finish off some more photography work! Bonsoir, mes amies.
