Grandparents

Saw mum and dad at the weekend.  The children climbed the apple tree that Mark and I planted from seeds from our apples when we were children......

Chessington

Went to Chessington World of Adventures with Zoe on Monday.  Sunshine and small queues combined to equal good fun.....

Cycling....

I went to the MotoGP at Silverstone on Father's Day.  So on Saturday we did some family things, including a ride out on our bikes.....

The Beach!

Had a good trip to West Wittering on Friday last week......

No Daniel until Friday!

Daniel is off on a school trip for a couple of nights. His first on his own. It is strange to have just the girls around.
Daniel was looking forward to the trip, and we got a text saying that they had arrived safely.

Hannah had a day trip to to an outdoor centre. She also had a good time.

Pennine Way (Sunday)

Another long day. We walked 15 miles today from Lothersdale back to
Malham. The guidebook didn't think much of this section, but I
thought it was quite picturesque with some interesting things to see.
These included several horses, some canal boats and quite a few
rolling hills and dales.
We even saw a sheep with a bucket on it's head (see photo).













All in all another good day. My feet are quite sore now, but I expect
that I will survive.
See you all tomorrow.

Pennine Way (Saturday)

Had a long day today. We got a taxi to Horton in Ribblesdale, and
managed to buy a map in the Tourist Office. This was even more useful
than we expected, as Uncle Alan had brought the wrong page of the
guidebook so we wouldn't have had a map at all!

Highlights of today were a big hill called Pen-Y-Ghent, Malham Tarn
and Malham Cove.
Hope you enjoyed your sleepover Zoe and Hannah. See you on Monday.
