Day One Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety-Four

Sunday 25th September 2016 - Today we went to the Nene Valley Railway in the Peterborough for Thomas Day as a special early birthday treat for Ira
Thomas the Tank Engine was there...
...and Emily too
We had a ride on Thomas and went through a really long tunnel. There weren't any lights in our carriage, which was very exciting.
We had a picnic on the train, played an eye spy game and I practised my numbers in a Thomas Activity book
We stopped off for a short explore around Peterborough station
And then it was all aboard and back to Wansford for some face painting, a bouncy castle and a man making balloon animals
What a brilliant day

Day One Thousand Four Hundred and Ninety-One

Thursday 22nd September 2016 - Today we did some painting. Mummy decided it might be better for us to be naked so we didn't get paint all over our clothes. It all started very well... 
...until we started painting ourselves! 
Mummy says most of the photos aren't suitable for the internet but by the time we'd finished, we were both purple from head to toe and had to have two baths and a long soak before the paint came off!

As a treat, Daddy decided he wanted to walk up to the top of the Castello di Acquafredda - the ruins of a 13th century castle we had seen on the hill when we were driving back from the caves
I walked all the way to the top on my own and Daddy was very proud of me
The view was amazing
I walked most of the way back down too
Mummy said I was like a mountain goat
I had a really great time. I hope Daddy did too

We walked through the streets and saw lots of people getting married
And we went all the way up to the Castle and the Cathedral Santa Maria 
-a beautiful 13th century, where Ira and I played on the steps and chased pigeons

We walked down at sunset and found some pasta for tea before heading back to our villa for bed
