Get the picnic basket out - because we are going on a retro photo journey.
Today is National Picnic Day which is designed to celebrate a perfect meal outdoors.
The trend is thought to have started in France in the 18th Century but Sunderland people love a spot of al fresco dining as these photos show.
Join us in Barnes Park, Ryhope and Mowbray Park for these Echo archive photos from 2000 to 2022.
