Another trip to Aldenham Park

Last weekend, we went back to Aldenham Farm Park. We wet there back in the beginning of April and it was freezing!! This time it was perfect; nice and warm....and dry!

Aldenham is a great place to take the kids. It has farm animals, a great selection of play park activities, nice walks, a lake nearby with boats, and great areas for picnics. The toilet are clean and there is a little refreshments cabin as well. All the staff are friendly and the place just gives off the right kind of relaxed atmosphere. And the cost for all this? A £5 parking fee. That it; no hidden costs!


All the animals are in enclosures so it's safe to let Emily run about. She loves running between the enclosures of goats, geese, chickens etc


...and although she was scared of the pigs, she was fascinated by them.....

...but of all the things we did, she loved the play park most. It took us all our persuasive powers to lure her away for a picnic bythe lakeside!!!

Unfortunately, I forgot to take anymore photos; I was too busy chasing a certain giggling little madam around the place but, trust me, this is a fantastic day out.

April 2008

Is it just me or is this year just flying by? It's really scary! April already - a third of the way through the year!!! And this is what we woke up to....

We've been hanging around the north of London recently. Over the last cople of weekends we've been going to Aldenham Farm Park in Hertfordshire. Emily loves it. She knows loads of farmyard animal names and it was nice for her to see real pigs, sheep, horses, cows etc.

We also had Denise, Sharons sister, over. She's going to be Emily's Godmother. We all went to feed the deer at Bentley Priory and the ducks in Stanmore. Err..you get the feeling that Emily loves animals??
