I thoroughly enjoyed this walk.😍
It’s a joy to get out in nature during the first few days of Spring. Feel that newness being created below your feet.🌱💚
Firstly, I went round some well-known local woods. I’m unsure what they’re called but my sister says she thinks they’re known as “Poor Common Woods”. It’s not too far from Holmwood Park.🌲🌲🌲
From there, I made my way towards Longham Lakes (Reservoir). It’s a really pleasurable walk with beautiful views as well as accompanied by the sounds of nature. Bird watching and fishing are popular activities in the area besides a weekly basis canoe and kayak club.

I didn’t manage to find the swan from the previous day but I’ve uploaded the clip that I made the week before at the end of this week’s video. I couldn’t leave him out.😁🦢

– **Victorian Expansion:** During the Victorian era, Bournemouth saw substantial growth in both population and infrastructure. Grand hotels, villas, and public buildings were constructed, shaping the town’s architectural character.
– **20th Century:** Bournemouth continued to develop as a tourist destination throughout the 20th century. The town played a role during World War II, serving as a base for military operations.
– **Post-War Period:** After the war, Bournemouth experienced further expansion and became a popular retirement destination. The town adapted to changing tourism trends and economic shifts.
– **Recent Times:** In more recent years, Bournemouth has focused on maintaining its appeal as a tourist destination, with ongoing efforts in urban regeneration and cultural development.
Today, Bournemouth is known for its scenic coastline, cultural events, and as a hub for tourism and education. Its history as a seaside resort town has left a lasting impact on its character and attractions.

Caught it on camera because he and I had a really lovely uh talk and he told me that on Easter Sunday there’s going to be loads of them coming out of that bit where uh he was just in that intersection he was just coming out he said there’s going to be
Loads of them on Easter Sunday at 12:00 so I’ve put that in my diary because that would be a amazing to see it so the bike itself was I don’t know how much is on the the video but um yeah it was gorgeous so yeah anyway
Going to carry along here and I’ll check in probably around the second Lake yeah got these guys who just come along yeah I’ve just given them a little bit of bread and um yeah I hope on the other side we’ll see that Swan but yeah this is taking me around
The second Lake this is the second Lake here and and yeah I’m just sitting here nice little bench a little seating area but yeah it’s really Nice oh I think they’re telling their buddies there some Bread yeah they know it so yeah so um yeah just in my thoughts as well but um I’m actually going to write a post and um yeah when I get back home I think I’m going to write this one and um yeah I mean I started first started my
Self-development journey in 2014 and um yeah and over the years you know you hear of the you know the notion of being in a now living in a now now is all that matters and for quite a few years and even up till recently I’ve always been
Um not related to that not so much I know it’s the truth of course it’s the truth um but I’ve never kind of related to it and really what really makes me um actually um develop that kind of being in the now is uh just using the term more at the
Moment so um and it I can apply that to so many different things actually I’m I’ve been thinking a lot about all the all the um different situations you could attach that to but it it really makes me it makes everything feel much better than just kind of saying okay
Just being the now uh thinking the now now and you know um I say at the moment um rather than now and uh so whatever you’re going through whether you’re uh happy sad miserable whatever right it’s all at the moment life’s going good at the moment um it’s terrible at the moment right
It’s it yeah relates more to me than saying about you know the term now and more that things do pass whatever and yeah it just makes me cuz we’re moving right we don’t stay in the now right uh you know what I mean we move and it’s momentarily whatever we’re going through
Is our moments and uh it truly makes me yeah um more reflect what I think more at the moment um and that’s for everything so for Good the Bad and the Ugly even if you’ve got um yeah people that maybe you deem as U horrible evil again it’s at the
Moment right so yeah anyway those are kind of my thoughts okay you guys so I think I’m just coming up towards uh the end of uh going round the second lake so if I just turn around this behind me is that first Lake we came to and then in front of
Me is the second Lake which we’ve just walked around see all the swans um geese ducks in the distance yeah sorry actually the um the last the clip where I was uh I was talking about the uh the thoughts my thoughts about at the moment and everything which I’m going to write a
Post and make that a bit clearer what I want to say I was just telling you guys off the on top of my head but um yeah i’ would like to write that a bit more clearer um but um but yeah I had a phone call that’s the thing with recording on
On uh on your phone which I am um yeah I had a phone call as I was yeah as I was talking so anyway it was uh it was a dear friend so um yeah it was a really nice call and I really appreciated it as
Well anyway um like I say I’m just going to make myself around half of this uh last bit of lake and then make my way home so hope you enjoyed today’s video and I will catch you guys yeah I think it will be our next adventure will be
