After several days of activities and outings we thought it would be good to have a day at the campsite. We'd also seen from the weather forecast that today was due to be extremely hot.
And so it turned out to be. Only a few minutes in the sun was bare able so we resorted to reading and playing in the shade. As always Naomi had a few tricks up her sleeve. Today these included a paddling pool, water slide, bubble maker and beads. To end the day we cooked lamb hot pot over a slow fire. As we knew it would be a while we went for a ride around the lanes. The pot was bubbling away when we got back but it was still a while, dark in fact, before ate. The shallow fried potatoes where very tasty but the lamb joint was not. Very chewy and fatty. Intended for roasting really. Even so it was a tasty meal.
Every one is beginning to sense the holiday drawing to a close. There has been talk of next year, of highlights and even of school. For now though we remain here and must make the most of it.
