Got up really early today. Toni woke the kids up wearing her swimming costume shouting, "Who's coming swimming" and was met with a blurry look from Aaron and Gemima whispering, "I'm coming mummy." We all went down to mum's caravan to find that Sophie was still wandering around in her pyjamas when she was supposed to be ready. We did all manage to get out by 08:55 to start our swim at 09:00.
Lots of swimming and splashing (and Sam and I took a quick detour into the sauna for a short while) before we all got out and headed back to mum's caravan. Mum had stayed behind as she was feeling tired and offered to make breakfast. Sophie, Sam and Shane wanted to do their own thing so they decided to have their breakfast and shoot off while Toni, Aaron, Gemima and I went back to our caravan to wash our hair and get changed.
Once we were freshened up we went to have brunch with mum before getting in the car and heading to Abbotsbury to go to the swannery there. It was VERY cold so Toni and I donated our sweatshirts to Aaron and Gemima. We didn't stay long due to the cold and then headed off to the Children's Farm. Weather had warmed up slightly and there was lots of stuff for them to see and do. Highlights for me were riding on a tractor and a mad five minutes on a see saw swing thing. Aaron and Gemima had a sit down and held and fed guinea pigs. The excursion ended with them spending 15 minutes in the ball pit.
We then headed back via Aldi (where Toni found Iced Gems) and a petrol station and met up with Sophie, Sam and Shane. Toni made a gorgeous dinner and then we played Happy Families. Toni and I popped out for a bit of fresh air and private time before returned to have a late night snack of cheese and fruit.
Aaron & Gemima tired before we even started:
Weird dude lurking in the herb garden. WTF is that all about?:
Swans and geese as far as you can see:
