AM & PM
With it looking like another miserable day, we decided to make pancakes for breakfast. Chef Zack put himself in charge of egg cracking and mixing. It started to brighten up and the rain seemed to have stopped so we decided to get ready and get out before we missed the opportunity. We set off and headed to Pickmere, another place we’d not actually been too before. As we walked down from car, we passed a couple of people who’d clearly been for a swim, then as we got to the mere we could see a few others swimming. There was a sandy bank, which we headed to and Zack had a good paddle, though being so windy it was almost like being at the beach with the waves crashing. After a while we persuaded Zack to come off the sand and carrying on walking, the lure of muddy puddles and little bridges did the trick. We walked for a while following the path, it started to rain so knowing that it wasn’t a circular walk, we decided to turn round and head back. Part of the way back there is a small pier, which we stopped to have a a little sit, drink and snack on. Zack was starting to get tired and it was nearing nap time so I carried him on my shoulders for the rest of the way to the car. Surprising he didn’t fall asleep on the drive home so we got in, did lunch and then got out with him out for a nap. The remainder of the afternoon the rain was on and off, so we played inside and got in the garden during the dry spells. We needed to tire Zack out so he’d definitely go to bed nicely, as Vikki and I had a take out dinner, from @chimehartford and movie night planned. While I went to collect the order, Vikki did the book and bed, thankfully he went down like a dream and we enjoyed a delicious feast.
