New England in the Fall


As luck and careful planning would have it, we found ourselves in New England just in time to see the famous fall foliage display. I say it's famous, but having now seen it for myself I don't know why even more people don't make the trip: it's amazing. Sure we have trees in England, but because of the climate and wider variety of species in New England, the autumn colours there are a million times more spectacular. These photos don't really do it justice - we spent 7 days driving through Vermont and New Hampshire (where the tree-clad Green and the White Mountains provide the most impressive viewing) and after every amazing view we found we'd round a corner and find another one.  Definitely a big highlight of the trip so far.
