This has been one of those really great days when everything just goes right from morning until bedtime.
We went over to Lenzie for our traditional New Year walk with Ewan and Heather. It was crisply cold with blue skies - perfect weather for an enjoyable and friendly winter hike. We walked to Torrance via Lenzie Moss and stopped for a drink before striding along the canal towards Kirkintilloch. The Stables pub proved to be very busy on this fine day so we continued onwards to Nonna's Kitchen where we had a tasty and convivial Italian meal. On the way back to Ewan and Heather's house we saw the crescent moon with a very bright planet Venus beside it. We had walked nine miles and although my legs were tired I felt really energised.
When we got home I asked Ally and Cat to show us their South America photos from last summer, which I have noticed them editing these past few days. They obliged and James, Davie, Chanel and I had a fascinating time looking at the photos on the big screen of James' computer which Ally brought through to the lounge. It was warm and cosy beside the fire and Ally and Cat told us lots of stories about their brilliant holiday. I had heard about some of their adventures before but it was great to hear the full story; they had such fantastic experiences!
The whole day was just delightful; friends, family, laughter, healthy exercise and relaxing!
