New Walk Museum

Yesterday, Dan wanted to watch the football which was being shown in a bar in town, so Louie and I headed off to the New Walk Museum whilst we waited for him.
Louie had a whale of a time! He was so interested in the exhibits, leading me around. We must have looked at every single painting and sculpture and show case in the building!

I was so pleased that Louie took such a positive interest. He really studied some of the exhibits, and I told him all about what was going on in the pieces, and about the artists. His Grandpa would have been very proud :)

In the morning, his Little Life backpack arrived, so I thought it would be a good excuse to try it out before we go on holiday next week. It is fab, and Louie even likes wearing it! However, it did make taking photos of him rather difficult, being at arms length! Nevermind :)

After we finished at the museum, Louie took me for a walk up and down New Walk. New Walk is a pedestrian path running from Victoria Park into the centre of Leicester and has been free from carriages and motor vehicles since it was laid in 1785! It is wonderfully peaceful :)
