September 21, 2024,Rondwandeling vanuit Mook - Mookerheide - Groesbeeksbos - Sint Jansberg 🚶🚶‍♀️🌞🌸🐂

Today we made a beautiful but quite tough round walk from Mook.
Sometimes our thoughts wandered back to Scotland and certainly when we saw the blooming heather again 🌸🌸 and now also the Scottish highlanders😍😍
What a fantastic last day in the summer of 2024, because tomorrow autumn officially starts 🌞
