16:20
Pick up some fancy chocolates from Old Firehall Confectionary. It is just an 11-minute walk from the park and perfect for a quick sweet bite before the light changes.
16:45
Walk to Toogood Park. Find a spot near Toogood Pond where the water reflects the sky. The park is a 21-minute walk from the chocolate shop, so leave the shop with enough time to settle in.
17:05
Watch the sunset. The sun sets toward the WSW around 17:05, casting a warm glow over the pond and the geese.
17:30
End the evening with a meal at Il Postino. It is an international restaurant serving pasta and pizza in a converted house with a front patio. It is open until 21:00, giving you plenty of time to eat after the sun goes down.
Local tip
