Welly Walk
Packwood House must be good if we can visit twice in three days, with Mr Bee asking to go back again tomorrow.
This time we met Anna and her boys to check out the new facilities and have some fresh air. One of the (lovely) ladies suggested we went on Packwood's 'welly walk' as we were suited and booted for such an occasion.
We squelched in mud, spotted fungi, walked the amazingly long stepping logs, played in the dens, spotted sheep and cows and had a generally amazing time!

New
A morning spent shopping at a Winter Festival in the surprisingly mild air. We bought so many goodies, posh cheeses, stuffed olives and amazing sausages.
Our afternoon was spent at Packwood House, sampling their new menu in their spanking new visitors centre and cafe. Our Chicken, Pepper and Pesto sandwiches did not disappoint, we can highly recommend the flapjack too ;)
Dan and I had a peaceful wander whilst Louie ran and played in the gardens. He is so at home in this beautiful place that his Pappy had never visited. I can see us spending many more days here with him.

Exploring
It was a cold and beautiful day with the most delightful azure skies.
We explored more of Calke Park today with Anna and Isaac and Alistair.
There were muddy knees, monsters, giggles and the most beautiful colours. We found new trees to document and found some new perspectives.
It all ended with a sunset which turned the trees a dreamy colour.
This was a good day.
