A walk in the park

We enjoy some pretty nice weather at the moment and went for a walk in the Kromslootpark in Almere Haven. It is a nice park with sheep to keep the grass short. To prevent them of walking away you have to pass some fences and have to watch they keep behind. This one was eager to cross the bridge but we managed to pass him.
They have plenty room to walk around and a lot to eat.

It is a beautiful park where you hardly see any other visiters.

The park was created before the first houses of the new town Almere Haven were built and after 38 years it has devellopped a nice nature to have close by, only a 15 minutes bike ride from our home.

One of the wooden bridges to cross the little ditches.
I link this one to the Friday Fences meme.

    O LOVE that bridge! I like the idea of using sheep to keep the grass short. We have an area (soon to become a park) near where I live that se cattle to keep the grass short. Yes, they have to be fenced in too. :)

    Lekker zo'n rustig park maar wel zonde dat er zo weinig mensen van genieten. Mooie foto,s

    This is indeed a lovely park. I would love to come here to walk and enjoy nature all about me and even be accompanied by some friendly sheet. They are very smart, clever animals to know the way out is on the other side of the bridge. As I gazed through your photos, I saw such beauty and I love the shot with the tree. Have a wonderful day :)
