A big improvement to the weather...

After what has been a pretty cool, damp few weeks, with no real sign of sustained spring-like weather, the last few days have been totally different! We have had blue skies and temperatures reaching around 20C or slightly more on some days. The forecast is good for the next few days too, so it seems that spring has finally arrived in style!
Anna took Sandy and Olivia along to the nearby East Links Family Park yesterday, where they enjoyed a fun filled day in the sunshine.
There is lots for the children to do there, and quite a few things that parents would like too! You can feed various animals, hold baby chicks and lambs and go on a train ride around the park. If you fancy seeing the ducks, head off to the pond and take some feed along there as well. There are lots of trampolines, and a new one Anna told me about called the "Jelly Belly" which sounded great. There's also a large go-kart track, which can be enjoyed by adults and children alike! And, if you need refreshments, head off to the large cafe, where there are plenty of things to satisfy all tastes. It was really busy yesterday at the park, not surprisingly!


At the go-karts!



O and S together!
