Crickly Country Park (by sarah)
Ages ago now - about six weeks or so my perants came up for the weekend and we went for a day outing at Crickly Country Park - there is geology, archeology and lots of wildlife there so it was lots of fun. I was also impressed with the visitors centre! though it needs a little cafe/shop thing really and the loos were a bit - hmmmm.
Jean loves collecting rocks!
Alaric decided he'd roll down the hill I can't remember why - this was on the back were the old Roman Hill Fort used to be.
Dad spent alot of time drawing cats and the like and reading all the notices - he was especially enamerred with the fossils and models at the visitors centre.
Jean became jellous of other children she found as they had hats and she didnt - this was how she ended up wearing Alarics fold-up hat!
I kept trying to photograph this poor creature but everytime it felt safe enough to venture out some one with a dog or small child would come walking through and scare it away again - hence no good pics!
The visitors centre had a giant snakes and ladders with velcro attatched to the wall and big cloth dice - Jean loved it though we did have a minor tiff about returning the dice to the little room were the game was!
