2011 Streak 115/365: Walk - 3.17 miles, Time - 1hr 5min, Weather - a lovely sunny bank holiday
Easter Monday was a lovely sunny bank holiday. According to my plan it was an easy day so we went to St Albans for a wander around the cathedral and the nearby park.
I am very fond of St Albans Cathedral and the way it clearly shows how it was built and developed over time. It is not a patchwork - it is honest. I also like the way you can see that it used materials at hand, whether that be left over roman bricks or flint stones.
Later on I will post some pictures and talk about it in more detail but for now I want to show the summery nature of the day. Many people were out and about, enjoying the sun, relaxing on a holiday.
I took this picture of a mother and daughter making daisy chains. It is one of those timeless activities. Generations upon generations have done this, probably on this spot. Somehow that thought gave me pleasure.
