Enough waffle - let's go have an adventure:
For some reason four of us needed to take our wellies off *ahem* but at least they didn't spoil the view. |
Luckily it was deemed sensible to put wellies back on before going for a paddle in what looked like a miniature ford. |
Look who is 'King of the Castle' .. |
There were hundreds of natural fairy doors and the two youngest girls had lots of fun 'releasing fairies' into the doors. |
Whilst the younger ones were releasing fairies the older ones were practising their balancing skills. |
And the oldest one (me) appreciated the scenery like the beautiful and mysterious middle lake |
and the reflection of the Kingcups on the water. |
Bigger Miss struck out on a limb over the water in search of the ducks. |
The ducks however were all gathered together for a quack on a nearby branch.
|
Not only were the tree roots made for climbing they also made brilliant caves. |
I got a bit bored and started taking pictures of our beautiful surroundings. |
We very nearly turned round and went home after the climbing but something made us go on and we stumbled on this Wishing Well which all four girls were fascinated by. |
Just down from the well was a beautiful babbling stream - perfect for paddling. |
We found a perfect bridge for a game of Pooh Sticks before turning for home. |
Little Miss found a tree with a face and big chubby cheeks - can you see it? |
True to form I was often to be found taking pictures of the flowers and leaves. |
