A good day out at Blenheim Park

Ellen and Rose enjoyed a very hot day at Blenheim with us and enjoyed the maze:

Then we went on the train and helped spot another girl's lost flip-flop. Ellen did this and earnt herself and Rose a free return ride.

In the butterfly house we liked the one which looked just like a dead leaf

Rose and Granny went to Grays Court

Rose got to the centre of the maze...without cheating!

and then explored the new fort and wonderful old yew tree:

 This was the obvious way to use the small windows in a fort!

Visiting the chickens

To recover from making the bunks we went to feed the chickens

Penny decided to give the "heron" a drink

but it was a surprise to see her fall in!

Bunks for Penny and Wilf

Grandpa has made the bunks and we took them up to Harby

"helping"

taking possession

Our "meadow"

The orchids have done exceptionally well in our meadow this year; counted 32 flower heads to-day. The Yellow rattle is also spreading rapidly.

In glorious sunshine and in beautiful gadens we enjoyed the Sculpture at Asthall
