One of my favourites! The lake looks great, with ducks gliding over.

I knew Hinksey park as a teenager. I’d played football on its lovely flat grassy pitch. I’d even refereed a football match on the pitch! When I’d visited Hinksey Park again recently I
remembered the fantastic row of giant redwoods by the tennis courts. They’re so splendid I couldn’t resist taking some photos of them.
I’d forgotten about (or, in the past, never even noticed) that besides this row of redwoods there were also a couple of them standing by themselves close to the Devil’s Backbone footpath.
Once again, I couldn’t resist taking some photos of them which lured me back to the row of redwoods by the tennis courts. I took some more photo of them from the other side of the lake than was the case with the first lot of photos.
The ducks are so tame they completely ignored me taking photos.

Great way to spend an afternoon (or morning)! The kids can run around in the grassy areas, play football (soccer for the Americans), then go splash in the water works playground next door, or take a dip in the pool with lifeguards (this one you have to pay for), and finally stroll around the pond and lake with ducks, delicious blackberries, and really old Redwoods.
