Tring, Watford or Mead Open Farm? Impromptu children’s location portraits!

Edlesbrough Church
Today is the last day of half term for our eldest son and I’m looking after him and his younger brother, so the question was should we:
As you might guess, Mead Open Farm was the winner. So off we went via Edlesbrough (stopping for a quick picture of the church) and on to the object of the children’s desire! I’m new to this 1/2 term thing, I should have expected it, yes, every other parent from miles around decided that’s the place to take the kids today. I’ve never seen it so busy, the car park was full, as was the overflow. I decided that we wouldn’t brave the crowds, we headed back towards Berkhamsted and stopped at the Common. Both the boys were wearing their wellies and so they went for a walk and I followed them armed with my Canon EOS 5D. The youngest is still a toddler at 20 months old and isn’t too experienced at running through fields or the woods, he ended up on his bottom quite a lot but at least he was enjoying exploring all around him (even what was on the bottom of his boot!).

What's on my boot

I'll help you up!

What's this muddy stuff?

I love to pose for the camera!
Now it’s time to go and feed the ducks down by the canal
and no doubt William will want to go for a Bambinocino at one of the coffee shops after.
