Paradise Lost

A warm drive into the heart of Paradise Lost. A narrow path cut through the woods, lined with green trees of all sizes. After a minute or two of driving inside the park, we stopped and took the food , tent and all our picnic essentials from the car trunk. We chatted away while walking to find a spot suitable for us. My niece and nephew kept pointing out their favorites to me as we traversed. I watched the space get bigger at every turn of my head. We found two families sitting around fire to get some warmth near small huts spaced out.The calmness in the environment radiated onto us.

After a careful consideration of where to sit we decided to set up our tent. The sky was cloudy and the air was cold as soon as we started up a camp fire, we warmed up instantly. It was a cosy place to lounge and relax. Birds flew in the sky ever so quietly in large numbers. The birds stopped flying around us when the sky turned dark I could feel their absence. We stayed outside and chatted the night away. It was a comforting moment for me. Picnics are one of the best ways to spend quality time with the people you care about. I value the most, these little happy wonderful moments.
