Lytes Cary

The sun was shining, the forecast was good so I headed to Lytes Cary a small medieval manor house and garden with estate walks.

I spent my day wandering enjoying the wildlife (skylarks singing), the flowers and my book. I've really not tried to pack stuff in. At one point I was going to go to Exeter Cathedral but I've just relaxed. 

Forde Abbey

I've had a lazy day visiting Forde Abbey, a former Cistercian Abbey turned private home. I just pootled among the gardens and read and relaxed. A few Swallows about and a Tree creeper but the large pond/small lake was empty! Bird wise the Robin that sa next to my bench and sang at me was the highlight.
