Busy weekend!

My sons and I enjoying the sandwiches - Cheese & Ham done by my little feller!...Yummy!


Hello everyone!

How are you'll? Hope you'll had a great weekend. As for me it was a wonderful weekend - time spent with my family. As the school holidays are here, the two week midterm break is quite a welcome change for us all at home. No hurried breakfasts, lunches and dinners just to make it on time for homework, school and tuition.

Last Saturday my family and I went for a picnic at the Botanic Park which is about 7km from our home. It was a relaxing time lazing around enjoying nature and animals. To our surprise the park was so crowded with fellow picnickers. We were looking forward to hiring bicycles to ride around the park but unfortunately, all the 300 bikes were already fully booked. Yup! they beat us to it!

Anyway that didn't deter us from enjoying ourselves. After finding our way around and enjoying our picnic basket, we had loads of fun watching the a few ponies, an intelligent parrot (which talks), a lonely buffalo and some mischievous monkeys, we had a tremendous enjoyable time at the pool.

An adventurous walk in the jungle plus a canopy walk was really good. The peaceful scenic view of the different fauna and flora was simply amazing of God's creation. We soaked in all these wonders on our trip around the park on a tramp car. Although it was quite a hurried trip, it was nice to pass by the spice and orchid gardens and orchards too. Finally we came to the dead end which was a dam area . It was quite a breath taking experience.

Picnic basket was mainly organised by my youngest son, Jude. He had prepared Ham and Cheese sandwiches, chicken nuggets and some fruits - watermelon, papaya and bananas.

We all had so much fun and hope to do another trip like this again in the near future. This time we must beat the crowd to get our bikes!

Watch out for more pictures on our trip in future!

Happy Holidays!

Cheers!
