The smell was incredible -camomile is out a the moment and elderberry, also lots of poppies -found a fantastic wheat field full of poppies at one point. Loads of birdsong -all very peaceful -a few fishermen and some other "serious" cyclists were on the path (the Giro D'Italia is on at the moment so they're all out on their racing bikes. I move out of the way as I am a slow but graceful peddle-pusher! Lovely and shady in the Elm woods and at the end have added a shot which shows the mediaeval tower in the distance -it is in the center of Cremona.

Dianne, the pictures of the poppies in the fields are absolutely beautiful.
I am envious. I would love to be able to see them around her, but we only have buttercups. Karma sent for your pics(unsigned - my mouse fell off the desk and hit the 'enter' key).
