A couple of weekends ago we went to see Gran Helen - one last long distance trip away before the new baby arrives.
Luckily there was a country fair on at Parkers Piece - including a cooking demonstration by Sophie Grigson - who's somewhere at the back of this group. We watched her cook some potato gnocchi and a plum desert, and then had a chance to taste it. Not quite sure how much Della liked it, but she enjoyed watching the cooking.
She then took a ride on a tour bus...
The next day we went to Linton Zoo, which was very handy as Della is doing a project about jungles at nursery, so she was able to spot lots of interesting animals. Before we'd even seen any, she had a go on the bouncy castle at the entrance to the zoo, so she was happy right from the start!
2 stripy animals - which one's the zebra?!
Amusingly the rabbits were her most favourite animals - she named them Sammy and Bammy!
There was also field full of Giant Tortoises
(though we weren't allowed to ride them unlike in Mauritius)
There was also some time to play
And to touch some tiny tortoises...
Then she got a bit tired...
Della has started to make lots of 'collections' - this one was of all the stuffed animals she could find.
And she spent some time rolling round the pavements of Cambridge on Gran Helen's hand painted bike.
