T Stands for Timed Visit Number 2

Hi everyone! We have been out again today but I haven't had time to look at the photos as my battery needed charging - I will show you next week! 
First though I have lots of photos of last weeks visit to another fairly local National Trust property!

We had to book in advance again - not the spontaneity that we usually have, but necessary to avoid the places being overcrowded!

I will mostly not add any words, as the beauty of Lyme park speaks for itself. 
The formal gardens that we usually enjoy were off limits but there are are lots of paths around the park and fabulous views.

There were a lot of people by the lake near the carpark and up near the folly so we walked around the back of the lake and headed up the hill!

 The cafe and shop are still closed in the woodyard

 Not a five legged sheep but a ewe and her lamb! She had been calling this lamb noisily for quite a while when it suddenly ran over the crest of the hill making a much noise at it could too!

 We did a bit of social distancing with the sheep!I could watch sheep all day...and we were in the shade!!

 I didn't take a photograph of the gate to the woods next to this wall but as we will come back and follow that route one day I will be able to show you then!
It was here that we first met anyone - a friendly couple were asking us if we knew where the woods led - we hadn't a clue!!!

 These are the sheep we passed on the other path earlier!

 Back to the carpark - ours is the grey car at the centre of this pic!
Once again our walk took around an hour! 
We'll be back to explore more paths that we have never walked on! 

 These last two were taken on the way out! I spotted a stag but it had gone by the time hubby stopped the car.

Here is my water bottle to join in with T Stands For Tuesday at Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog The Altered Book Lover!

I am getting my craft room sorted but it's going v-e-r-y slowly!
I may have some pics next week!

I hope that you are all still keeping safe. Even though lots of restrictions are being lifted it will be a long time until we can call this pandemic over!

Thanks for looking and do take care! Chris
