A Nice Walk

We often moan about the British weather and always raining etc so here is a positive take on it, this morning I took the dog out to our local park, it was tipping down but very mild so was actually very nice and refreshing, not many people around so all I could hear was the sound of the rain and our local park is very beautiful and just made for a very enjoyable walk with some thinking time.

Do any of you enjoy rainy walks? (with or without a dog).

Seafront can be good in any weather. Waves crashing against the shore or as smooth as a millpond with sun glinting off it. All good.

Thoroughly enjoy a rain soaked walk. Comes from my northern roots, I suspect. Just as long as it's not windy as well.

Walks are great in all weather's, just need the right clothing.

I thoroughly dislike walking in rain and/or wind. Mild to warm with a light breeze is my ideal although I'll accept cold and bright.

Yes and no, I’m by the sea now so most rain here tends to be icy cold and blasted by the wind but when I lived more inland it was nice without the sea breezes making it so cold

Years ago I lived abroad and the rain there was warm, that absolutely was blissful, it only came once or twice a year and we (all the locals, the tourists thought we were nuts) would all go out dancing in the streets in it

Oh I do miss it at times

I did a stint in the Middle East. We used to sit outside and drink gin and tonics when it rained (twice in two years)

I love walking in the rain, the sound, the smell, the sensation of it hitting you...nothing soothes me quite like being surrounded by nature and feeling the elements.

I always enjoy walking in the rain, I live in a beautiful part of the world, the rain keeps folk indoors, so at these times, I get to enjoy it all by myself

I lived in SEAsia as a kid and worked there as an adult. As a kid we would go out in the rain and the locals thought it was funny to have white kids running around in the rain.

When I worked abroad I would do the same with me daughter, we woudl go out and dance in it and splash in puddles. An idyllic life.
