Brett had a training class in Bath all week. I dropped him off at the train station every morning and he would ride to Bath every day. The weather was “rubbish” the first part of the week with lots of rain.
On Thursday we finally saw the sun shining and we had to get out. The kids and I headed to a farm called Roves Farm. The girls had a great time! They got to feed baby goats with a bottle, ride on a tractor, see a few farm animals, make a craft and play on the bouncy castle, climb the haystacks, and playground.
Thursday evening we drove to Oxford. This is a neat town with Oxford University which consists of 36 colleges, the architecture of the colleges was beautiful. We saw the Radcliffe Camera-a classical rotunda, the Bridge of Sighs-it is a copy of the bridge in Venice, and Christ Church.
Friday we went to Bath with Brett in the morning and the kids and I played at a huge playground across the street from Brett’s class. We then had lunch in Bath. It is a neat city and much more lively during the day time than it was at night.
Then we drove through Cheddar Gorge it’s an amazing canyon. It’s the only place you can buy Cheddar from Cheddar.
We also drove through Bristol it’s about an hour from Swindon, it’s a very big city with lots to see.
Saturday was a fun day with the kids. We took them to Legoland Windsor. Alana especially loved it because she could go on all the rides. Addy needs to grow a little taller, she was sad when she couldn’t go on the ride, but she had fun on the smaller rides. We had to switch off with Allden. There were tons of people at the beginning of the day so we had to wait in long lines of 30-45min per ride. Then it started to rain in the afternoon and towards the end of the day we only had to wait about 5-10 minutes for the ride. We didn’t have time to go on all the rides but we had a great time. One of our favorites was the miniland. They created little city’s and replica’s of famous places out of legos. Alana’s favorite was the rollercoaster and the boat ride, we got to race little motor boats around a lazy river (all of us could go on the ride) it was pouring rain at this point so we got quite wet. After lego land we had dinner in Windsor. This is where the Windsor castle is, the Queen of England sometimes resides here.
Sunday we went to church then took Brett to the airport. He had a business trip in Boston for the week. So I’m here in London with the kids on my own.
