Out and About

Some pics from our recent days out...we made the best of the good weather which seems to have packed up and gone away with the approach of summer....

This is in Marlow, a charming place. There was some kind of fair when we went, which ensured that the children had enormous fun, running, jumping up and down on the bouncy castle, and riding the fairground rides.

After a hearty picnic and a lovely old-fashioned nice-cream 'in a boat' (that's what I called them as a kid), we walked down to the river. We enjoyed feeding the ducks and swans.
There is something really beautiful about swans....so majestic,so perfect..

Another weekend we took the children to Odds' Farm for a day out. They loved it.. The feel of an animal muzzling your hand is so therapeutic and pleasing...even my son who was a little afraid at first,enjoyed it.

On

 On Bank Holiday weekend we took off for a day at Bournemouth... of course, the sea was frigid, and the sun hid behind a huge bank of cloud almost as soon as we got there. But the cold did not deter my daughter from wading in the sea,while her brother and I built sandcastles. And we all ate fish and chips..

Life is about more than chocolate, right?  Erm, No

Haha. See you soon (from my new website)
