The weather was glorious when we got up so we made a picnic and drove to Sandbanks (which has some very, very big posh houses). We parked the car and walked the short walk approx 15 minutes and caught the ferry to Brownsea Island.
Wow - there were some spectacular views! We could have been on a tropical island somewhere, especially as the weather was so good. It almost made me want to go straight home and get out my Famous Five books! Coast on one side and country on the other.
I am doing this with Roman sitting next to me! He said -
we walked for 4 hours!
we had a snack and lunch when we found a bench and somewhere to sit down
we saw a deer
we saw a peacock
we saw two red squirrels
we walked around the entire island
Anais and Roman touched the sea
we looked in the gift shop
we had to do climbing and walking and helping each other
Roman had a walking stick which he called a "helping stick"
..........................a peacock (lots of them!)..........................
The model plane so far..................
