Walking through the Cathedral grounds last night, we stumbled on these newlyweds making the most of the beautifully lit trees as a backdrop for what must be a wonderful set of wedding photos. Winchester is definitely one of those places where you are not quite sure what you might find around each corner…

Kayaking Weeki Wachee Springs – Florida
If at any point you have driven between Clear Water and Orlando in Florida, you may well have spotted the rather retro looking sign for the Mermaid Park Weeki Wachee at the side of the road – it’s quite hard to miss. Back in the fifties, this park was one of the most popular tourist […]
