Day 112: School Nature Hike


Elizabeth's class went on a nature hike today. We walked a couple of blocks from the school to a small creek. The kids got to wade in the water and tried to catch things with little nets. Then we walked a little further and stopped for a snack by the water's edge, then walked back to the school. They all had so much fun. Edward came too. He didn't want to hold my hand while we were walking and created a bit of a fuss, but once we got there he was well behaved and had a good time too. I had to go in the water too, so I could keep a hold of him. I went prepared for that though. He was completely exhausted by the time we got home and slept for three hours. I was sure Elizabeth would want a nap too, but she was still full of beans.

I didn't even know this place existed. It's really nice and peaceful down there, and the water isn't too deep. I think we might go back with Daddy, maybe when my mum finally gets here if the water hasn't dried up by then.
