Friday 12th June - walk **** – Holywells Park in Ipswich – sunny
periods and much warmer!
Gave the early morning walk with Mag a miss today even though the weather
has improved being much milder now with sunny periods! So while Mag picked
up Maeva I packed the usual picnic and she arrived full of beans around
eleven with a selection of artwork she wanted to show me and her large
make-up box:) Mag went up into the loft to get some kids books and I helped
her up there, she was great on the ladder too with a little help from me.
She then chose a large selection of toys to take down stairs, most of which
ended up in the van for today’s adventure :) The destination today was
the lovely Holywells Park in Ipswich, leaving Felixstowe just before
midday. We tried to park by Ipswich waterfront first for a picnic in the
van but there was no parking spots so we park at our usual spot at the rear
of the park just off Landseer Road. Maeva was happy to ride in the biggy as
we followed the stream to the main park; the path was muddy in places due
to the large amount of rain of late! We did the circuit of the park first
through the tree spotting the odd squirrel, we did a circuit of the throne
room using all the stepping stone seats before reaching the old
conservatory near the stables before going down the steps towards the small
lakes to the new funky seat where the ducks and a family of geese were
waiting to be fed which we did while eating our picnic lunch, the birds
were so tame coming right under our feet! It was then over the wooden
bridge leading to the large kids adventure playground and had ago on loads
of things with the swings still being Maevas favourite! We then walked back
to the van and took the scenic route via Levington home for a welcome cuppa
with a cow biscuit, another top Maeva Friday, great fun was had by all:)
I was surprised that Thomas Schaafernaker used one of my pics I took
yesterday on the BBC:)
