The one where we go for a Spring walk.

14:30

On Good Friday, with there being no school and the start of the half term, we decided to make the most of the sunny weather and go for a nice walk along the river bank! It's one of favourite places to go for a walk as there is so much to see. It's even better when the weather is mild and sunny! For the first time this year we didn't even need to wear our coats. It was lush.

There's plenty of ducks, swans and geese to be spotted as well as signs of spring. The flowers are starting to bloom! It's such a beautiful time of the year. The kids had a blast feeding the ducks, swans and geese and I had a great time taking photos! Which are slowly improving as I get use to using my bigger camera.

We spotted some old boats, which the kids were fascinated with!  When I was little we use to climb in an old boat (I'm not sure if it was this one) but we can't do that any more as the marsh land os very waterlogged! And it actually would be quite dangerous to do that now but still, I enjoyed sharing my memories with my own children! Charlie was truly fascinated and wondered how old the boat actually was!

Walking further along the river bank we spotted some flowers! Mainly daffodils and mini daffodils which we just adore! It's such a nice mood setter to see so many signs of spring which will shortly be followed by summer and we can not wait!

We finished our afternoon off by walking to our local shops and buying ice creams! It truly was splendid day and I am very glad we made the most of it. All the weather has done since is rain and we've had very strong winds! 


Hopefully our sunny spring weather comes back throughout the half term so we can go on more adventures!

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter and managed to find a break in the weather!

  16. Looks like a lovely spring walk and through some beautiful scenery. there is always so much to see and do near water and I must say that boast is calling out to be properly explored, shame about the marshland around it. I hope you have seen some spring days again, we have had a few this week. Thank you for popping over and linking up with #CountryKids.

  22. It looks beautifully sunny, a fantastic day for a walk. We've had one day without jackets recently too, but normally the weather is too unpredictable for that. The signs of spring are beautiful to see, I like winter, but the little pops of colour are a welcome sight. Thanks so much for linking up to #Whatevertheweather :) x
