pennywell farm

It was a fun-filled day, as you can see with the excessive photographic evidences.

 All of us got to pat loads of animals.

 Ella was very keen too.

 She didn't like sheep shearing for some reason.  It did look a bit painful.

 Sharp claws!

 We both got to do pony rides.

We loved the rocket tractor ride.

 Then there was the big tractor ride which Ella enjoyed.

 I was the only person brave enough to go on the thunder slide

 Ella and JM waited for me patiently.

More animal feeding.

 He's a big boy!

 Pond dipping.

 Newt, waterboatman and the rest!

 Little chick.

 Piglets!

 Meltdown time for Ella.

 It was bedtime for the sheep.

the power of Scooby Doo

we love our bubbles

Piki and I go way back!

more ice-skating

Unfortunately I bumped my chin on ice and we had to get to the nurse.  I was very grateful JM was there to help.

 It wasn't too big of a bump and we were back on ice again.

 It was a great day!

tadpoles!

We got some tadpoles from the pond and we got them a new temporary home.

 It didn't take two long before we got some frogs!  It was all happening within 3 or 4 days.

 Got to make sure they didn't jump out for the time being before we put them back by the pond.

 Can you spot the frog?

our first cycling trip

JM and Ella were the happiest being towed in their trailer.

 What is not to like?  They had all the drinks and snacks in the trailer too.  Lucky them!

                        

                        

                       

                       

The view from our trail.

 Standing proud with Mrs. G.

 Bonus!  A playground at the end of the trail.

 Ooops I guess Ella didn't like the swing.

 It was very scary.

 She was better off standing on her own feet.

ice skating in Plymouth

I was all decked up for our skating trip.

             

We were the only people at the rink for over an hour.  I got to practice and practice and practice.  We ended up skating for almost 5 hours.  Serious skaters!

             

a leisure stroll

We love taking Tusker out for walks.

back to our favourite spot...

The pirate boat!  Ella wasn't too happy for some reason though.  We think it's her teeth.

             

We were glad to be back.  Travelling can get very exhausting.

             

             

Ella was still whining!

            

goodbye Paris

We were ready to say goodbye to Paris.
                        

A quick snake at the airport.

 Bye France!

 We were very civilised.

Our little plane brought us back.  We hope to do another trip to Europe soon!

                    

after party

We even had a little after party after our dinner.  It was fun and we got to go to bed at 11pm!
