Snow beast

So the snow watch 2019 happened much earlier than last year and here in Cardiff it was well a bit poo...  Snow was sparse and not long lasting but we had school closed and scared people into going out so work was too very very quiet.  I was annoyed at all the disruption it caused with so little and well I realised how much I do miss proper winter with snow and cold.  This picture is taken on the same day, but where my parents are in Russia.  Also I wished it was more of snow purely for the little one to play with. He was so keen but there was barely any, not even to build a snowman or anything. Mother says they can dig a massive igloo with what they had. Oh well, maybe next year we will go to Russia for some real winter fun. Or I don’t know Switzerland. 

School trip

This week we had yet another school trip, to Bristol Zoo.  One of us had to go with out little Eggman, just to ensure everything will be ok.  I was rather anxious about the whole thing, what if he won’t listen, what if he won’t like animals and many other scenarios played in my head.  But...  I need not worry. He loved it. Yes we did wonder off occasionally to find more fun stuff like these rocking cars. Does everyone hates them as much as me?! He just had a little play and then just got off and run with me to find the rest of the class.  Gorillas were fantastic, we got there at the feeding time and it was great! There even was a baby gorilla attached to it’s mother’s back.  Penguins diving and sea horses were a great hit with my son too.  The bus journey there and back of course was loud but I have a whole new found appreciation for the teachers. They are doing such an amazing job!  And now we are planning our trip to the Zoo as a family!
