Snow White Lion

We went to the Brockenhurst carnival again this year. Last year when we went, I had my face painted like a tiger. Well this time I wanted to be a lion.

Daddy took Maisie for a walk whilst I was waiting to get my face painted and when he came back he had this costume...

I don't think there are many other Snow White Lions out there, do you?

One for the beach!

Grandma and Grandad came to see me last week and I had a lovely time. As usual Mummy and Daddy didn't take any photos whilst they were down except this one which doesn't even have them in it. Anyway, this is a tent that is supposed to provide shelter from the sun on the beach. Grandma picked it up as they don't sell them near here. It "pops up" in a couple of seconds but it did seem to take Daddy a lot longer than that to put it away again.

Lets hope the next photo of it is in more exciting surroundings than our lounge!!!

Sunday Morning Walk

We went for a walk nice and early this morning to avoid the rain that was supposed to be coming and we did... just!

I didn't actually build this shelter but I think I'll have a go next time!

Unfortunately Daddy wouldn't do this all the way round!!!

Day at Adventure Wonderland

Before Daddy went back to work after his week off we all went to Adventure Wonderland. I had a great time...
There were lots of rides to go on and after lots of persuasion by Daddy I finally agreed to have a go on the pirate ship with him. I won't be going on it again in a hurry though!!!

Last time I went, either Mummy or Daddy went on each ride with me. As you can see, I'm big enough to do it on my own now.

I wasn't tall enough to go on the runaway train last time but enjoyed it this time... I think Mummy is hiding somewhere next to me.

Bike Ride Round Hengistbury Head

Today I went for a bike ride round Hengistbury Head. Don't worry about the clouds, we took the land train back and just avoided the rain!


I had a little play on the beach.

I invented a new game of pouring water on a spot in the sand and stamping till my feet started sinking in.

Longdown Activity Farm

We went to Longdown Activity Farm today and met up with Sally, Luke and Deanna. We dodged the raindrops and I got to see lots of animals.




Luke and I even got to have a go with this this digger.

We all went on a very bumpy trailer ride behind a tractor. Maisie has a picture on her blog!

Harold Hiller Gardens

Daddy had the day off work today and we all went to the Harold Hillier Gardens. I had a really nice time as there was lots to do. There was a great treehouse with a slide and climbing net - which I mastered quite well if I say so myself.

The flowers in this border looked really pretty and it was so lonnnngggg!

I got to have a nice ice-cream whilst Mummy and Daddy had a drink.

I really liked this magic carpet swing.

And I made a new friend called Nerissa...

Boat Trip

Yesterday we all went over to the Isle of Wight to see Geeta and Daniele who were staying over there. I really enjoyed the boat trip as you can see.

We went to a beach where Daddy helped me build sandcastles whilst Maisie ate sand!!!


We also went to Fort Victoria in Yarmouth.


Apparently this was my first time "abroad"!

Waterpark

I had a lovely day last Tuesday with Mummy, Maisie and the neighbours, Jodie, James and Mandy at the new waterpark in Christchurch.



There was water everywhere!

RNLI Fun Day

Today we went to the RNLI fun day in Mudeford. Here's a picture of me looking for the rescue helicopter - I think everyone else is looking the wrong way!

This big wheel was very big indeed but I was only a little bit scared.

Daddy said he was as well!

Of course every fun day has to end with ice-cream!!!
