We had a very busy time last week. It began with a weekend trip to the Blue Planet Aquarium for our younger daughter’s birthday treat. Both my girls had a lovely time, and I really enjoyed it as well.

We had to walk through the shark tunnel at least three times so my eldest daughter could ride on the moving platform, and actually I felt really relaxed in there, watching the sharks and fish swimming about and listening to the relaxing music playing in the background. I could imagine sitting in there out of visiting hours and doing some very healing meditation sessions.

Birthday Daytrips and Fun with Friends

After that we took advantage of some nice, warm weather and took our children and dog for walks with friends. Just a short drive away from home is a place called Winsford Flash. It is an area of natural beauty where we can walk along the banks of the Weaver river. We walked towards Rilshaw Meadows, our girls had fun paddling in the shallow water, and Baxter the Staffy X ran around like a mad thing and kept fetching huge sticks for us. We really enjoyed our afternoon in the sun, and look forward to many more as the summer holidays progress.
