Autumn Picnic by the City Pond
Experience the romance of autumn by indulging in a serene outdoor date idea. A picnic by the city pond in Ekaterinburg, filled with warmth, love and serenity. Enjoy the fall colors, mild winds and a perfect spot for a more relaxed bonding time with your loved one.
- The romantic date begins with a leisurely afternoon walk to the City Pond, savoring the fall colors en route. Once you reach, you find a picturesque spot to lay down your picnic blanket. As you unwind, you unpack the contents of your picnic - your favorite foods, a nice bottle of wine, maybe a book of poetry. The tranquil waters of the pond serve as an enchanting backdrop to your repast.
- After the picnic, there's a pleasant afternoon of bird-watching and casual conversation to look forward to, perhaps leading to a walk around the pond. On returning to your picnic spot, you can relax, cuddle up together and watch the sun set over the pond, a spectacular finale to a beautiful day.
- As the evening sets in, you pack up your picnic remains, and take a soothing stroll around the City Pond, relishing the last bits of the beautiful day. As you walk hand-in-hand with your partner, you bid adieu to the pond and make promises to return to relive the beautiful memory.
Preparation steps:
- Start with checking the weather forecast. Autumn can sometimes have unexpected showers, and it's better to be prepared. Next, pack your picnic. Include foods that are easy to eat outdoors - sandwiches, fruits, nuts, some pastries or muffins. Don't forget to bring a good bottle of wine.
- Bring a blanket, not just for sitting on but also an extra one if it gets chilly. Also, bring some essentials like tissues, hand sanitizer, a book or a music player for entertainment. You might also want to bring binoculars if you're interested in bird-watching, and a camera to capture special moments.
- Finally, dress comfortably, and remember to dress in layers so you can adjust with the changing temperatures. Bring hats for both of you, since it can get quite sunny even in September.
Some tips:
- Always clean up after your picnic. Leaving no trace in nature not only preserves the beauty of the park but is also responsible behavior.
- Remember to pick a spot that isn't too public but is safe. The park is quite large and it can be great to find a spot that's a bit tucked away so you have some peace and tranquility.
- It can get chilly in September especially as the sun sets, so it's important to have extra layers to keep warm. Alternatively, a hot thermos of coffee or tea might be a great addition to your picnic as you both watch the sunset.
