Free Family Day Out - Canal Festival

What a difference a day makes ! Woke up today to glorious sunshine. I pegged out the washing and felt the sun burning on my skin so out came the sun cream. We headed over to a Canal Festival close to where we live. It was free admission and hads lots going on. There was lots of little stalls selling cakes, hand crafts , tombola etc. The local church had a stand advertising all its activities and had a free badge making section which kept the children occupied. They also had canoeing which my daughter was keen to try, which was a very reasonable at £1.50 for 25 minutes. We also picked up 3 books for £1: a brand new Butterfly Lion by Michael Murpurgo , a paper back not previously heard off and a book by Madonna , called the English Roses ( which my daughter has read intensely every since ! ) It was great to be able to get out and enjoy the sunshine as we were couped up all day yesterday. Have you been enjoying the sun today ?
