We sat and ate our lunch while the boys played on the equipment. After we had done that we strolled through the park to the "Train Station" where after a short wait we boarded the little mini "Train" and went on a circuit of the grounds.
The boys had such a great time waving to everyone. There was a tour bus of elderly people there sitting eating their lunch and everyone waved as the children went past. Every child on the train thought they were superstars or something, beaming with pure bliss and enjoyment.
After we left the train, we explored the rest of the park, looking through the stunning conservatories and grining at the antics of the monkeys, then strolling around the paths exploring.
Mr O found a water fountain, and he and Mr G both were suddenly "dying of thirst". It did make for a cute photo opportunity though, and trust me, with 2 exceptionally active boys, they seem to be getting further and further in between!
The boys weren't happy when we tolled the bell so to speak and told them it was time to head for home. Mr O thought he could delay the inevitable by hiding from us. Shame for him that I saw where he went and waited with the camera for him to peek around the side. *grins*
All in all we had a lovely day away, and spent Sunday at home doing work around the house. Its almost summer time, and time to start thinking about bushfire protection and snakes. *shudder*
