I'm jealous that you have that so nearby! (At least, it's closer to you than it is to me). Just beautiful!
Yes, it would have taken me just as long to make that walk, if not longer. 😃 That's precisely the reason I don't bring my camera when I go cycling; I'd be stopping all the time to keep taking pictures, too.
Ha ha, closer than you indeed, but not so close at all!
