I have been meaning to post this since the summer, I can't believe we are already 4 weeks into term already, where does the time go??
We had the most lovely day at Arlington Court, only a 30 minute car journey away, I can't believe I have not been before.
Such beautiful grounds, the perfect place to have a picnic. The lake is full of fish which very much enjoyed the crisps that the children fed them.
Then there was the tree climbing.....
So many brilliant trees to climb and camps to be made.....
They had such a good time, Naomi and I even managed to chat...
The tea rooms were also well worth a visit, lovely lunches and cakes. We were all so hot after tree climbing we had to have a round of lollies.
The carriage museum was so much more than I had expected. There were lots of amazing really old coaches to see including a wonderful gold state coach. Then there were 3 real live gorgeous shire horses to meet and the children even got to have a go at harnessing a very obliging wooden horse called Polly.
A quick ride in a mini carriage, ya, ya!
And just enough time for one more climb on the way out.
A great day had by all, highly recommended!!
