Last week I pretty much spent most of my days indoors, wrapped in over-sized jumpers and scarfs, sipping hot lemon and honey concoctions and generally feeling a bit sorry for myself while attempting to shake off a death cold that I picked up in Berlin. Fun times. So as the weekend approached and I started to feel vaguely human again, I decided that some fresh air and wide open spaces was much needed and we set off to the Forest of Dean for a weekend woodland walk. Plus what better way to test out our new Joules Wellies!
F loved it of course, with sticks and mud being two of his favourite pastimes he happily wandered and explored, stopping to poke puddles and draw trails for us to follow. I forgot how good it can be to get out of the Bristol and watch this boy run around, normally we spend our weekends hanging out in the city rather than getting back to nature, but seeing how he flourishes outdoors it's something I definitely need to incorporate into our weekly routine.F loved his dinosaur wellies and can't wait to wear them to all the festivals we have lined up this year, and I am loving the cool pink flash and the snake skin style flocked finish of my Olive Snake Nessie Wellies. After our walk we stopped into my folks house who don't live too far away and sipped cups of hot tea, warming ourselves while F got showered in attention before heading home for bedtime.

ReplyDeleteCan't believe we were both in Berlin, unknowingly, at the same time and we managed to pick up the same souvenir: the Berlin flu. It's been a horrible week for me too.
