Since we were coming to the end of the Holidays, although we weren’t going abroad we wanted to experience some days out so went to 3 cities- London, Ely, and Cambridge. This Blog is about a day spent all around London Bridge. You may recognise how close they are to each other because in some […]

About 2 weeks ago, me, my brother Euan, and some of his friends, went to Wendover Woods just outside Aylesbury for Go Ape and to visit the Woods. Wendover Woods is a big wood, managed by Forestry England, where you can explore the outdoors, walk and exercise, and Go Ape is a climbing adventure in […]
Today, we walked another trail from the Ver Valley Society. It was a shorter one and part of it is from the Ver Valley Walk 7 and the green ring. You go through lots of beautiful scenery and it is good for a couple of hours or so. It’s easy to do and isn’t hard […]
Yesterday was the hottest day of the year in the UK so we decided to go to Verulamium park to paddle. We went to the area at the edge of the main lake, beside the Fighting Cocks pub. There’s stepping stones going across at that point, like my recent walk post – Ver Valley Walk […]
As I said in a recent post Euan has been doing 3 swimming lessons a week so here’s a cycle route we’ve done recently, to use the hour while we’re waiting for him to finish. These pictures were taken near the start when we were going up the track beside Batchwood. It’s really really bumpy […]
Yesterday we visited a lavender field in Hitchin. It smelt very nice! It’s very pretty and is a good place to spend a couple of hours. It has its own ice cream, even with lavender flavoured (but I got chocolate)! TASTY! Arrangements, Costs and Getting There At the moment, because of the Pandemic, the lavender […]
Today we went to Hawkswick Lodge fruit farm to pick some strawberries. If you want to go check out my post about a walking route to get there. It’s really fun and I would recommend it as instead of going to the shops you can pick it fresh when it’s nice and tasty. It’s also […]
The “Discover the River Ver Project” by the Ver Valley Society created a series of short walks following the River Ver and exploring the surrounding countryside. As a family, we have been walking the routes, creating downloadable GPS maps, and I’ve been writing up the walks from a child’s point of view. We’ve now grouped […]
Recently, we decided to go on a walk with our friends. We chose this walk from the Ver Valley Society. It’s perfect for a warm day because there’s lots of shade and a few bits where you can go for a paddle. To make the walk more interesting my dad did some research around chalk […]
