Easter Holidays - week 2

So I wasn't feeling very well during the second week of the Easter holidays.  I have never completely shaken off the 'cold' I had in February and all the extra exercise we have been doing overwhelmed me and I was back to feeling a bit rubbish again, so the boys headed off on their own adventures this week whilst I enjoyed some lovely hot baths by myself.  Oh, and the weather was amazing again!

Monday - Tom and Matt headed to Kingsdale on a bike ride.  Basically miles of uphill roads.  I wouldn't be able to do it if I was 100% let alone under the weather.  By all accounts they did really well and even bumped into some friends who were duck egg rolling down the hills.

Tuesday Tom put his tent up in the garden as it is so sunny, the idea was to sleep in it, but although he did try many times, he didn't manage to actually fall asleep in it.  After lunch they headed up Ingleborough - at Tom's request.  Walking around here is great - but locals are divided between whether you should be walking in fields or on roads, and whether you should be walking up mountains or not (issue being if you fall, you will have to call out CRO putting them at risk).  So, we don't tend to advertise where we go as there will always be people saying you shouldn't be there.   Anyway they went up Ingleborough carefully and back down again with no incidents.  Matt was hoping that it would be really clear up there, but unfortunately it was hazy so not great for panoramic shots.

Wednesday - sorry can't remember what we did on Wednesday, but most probably included a bike ride for the boys and I think we watched Lion King 2 and probably did some legoing.

Thursday, Matt and Tom went to Crina Bottom and then explored on the limestone pavement above it.  We then had a BBQ for tea.

Friday - once again, we can't remember what we did - but a bike ride for the boys and maybe a film: Jumanji or a board game and probably some legoing

Saturday, we all went out for a walk together.  Up to the stepping stone, across them.  I then went down Oddies Lane back to Ingleton, whilst the boys explored  the ridge above Twistleton.

Sunday is a blank again - probably lego, a board game and a bike ride?!

Mainly, this week we completely fell out of routine, we weren't waking up till really late, we lost any semblance of routine and were very busy doing very little.  Thinking getting back to a school routine will be good.
