Creativity Day -- a day when we allowed God to lead us & challenge us to be creative. Above, Alice creating her Princess Bride banner. Below, Irey from Hongkong making a box.
Jenniffer from Taiwan preferred to blow bubbles. 
And Craig sewed a banner. Although he had no experience, with some guidance he created quite an impressive one... Any other men want to take up the challenge?
I was really fascinated by this butterfly. It was so intent on getting the goodies from the flower that it refused to budge, even though I was just inches away. I think it was teaching me a lesson on being focused! 
This is part of the stream that flows under the bridge which I always cross on the way to Little Pond. I find it beautiful.
Moss -- round, soft, spongy.
Didn't know weeds could be this lovely. And yes, my charger is working! Found out I'd put the batteries the wrong way round (blush!)
Ellel is situated in Frensham, which has a sizable nature reserve nearby. The woods are beautiful, covered with firs, heather, scrub, lichens, and with two man-made ponds, created in the Middle Ages. The ponds are called, ahem, "Little Pond", and "Big Pond".
This swan got out of the Little Pond and walked towards me. Looking for food, I expect! When they fly, they make a great "whomp! whomp! whomp!" with their wings. You wonder how they get their bulk into the air, but they do. In Singapore, we don't see them flying as their wings are clipped.
October in Surrey. Misty, cold, rainy, windy. Very enjoyable, provided that one is healthy! Great for long walks in brisk, cold air. I'm told as there are lichens growing on the ground, that means the air there is extra pure. If only one could bottle it.
