Dunkerry Road, Windmill Hill

"Opening the bedroom shutters at dawn and seeing rolling hills towards Dundry - sometimes even with a hot air balloon drifting away - a moment of quiet countryside that seeps into our city house. Heading downstairs to pop the dog on his lead then heading up the road to Victoria Park knowing it won't be long before I've got a steaming coffee and the best pain au chocolat of my life in my hand from the Bristol Loaf down the road. I never tired of this morning routine."
