Thanks for sharing, when my children were young we took our autumn break in the forest this brought back many happy memories. Our Springer Spaniel loved the forest so much he would sing for the entire journey on arrival he would just explode out of our van and career around the campsite like a mad dog., he was not even a city dog he was born on the Grafton estate and lived in the countryside so it was a genuine love of the place that excited him so. Personally I found it relaxing the cool weather for walking the beautiful autumnal colours. The scent of wet woodland earth what is there not to love sunny wet or windy the forest shelters you from the extremes. Bloody marvelous.
