You Gotta Have A Chill Day

Some days you just have to kick back and relax. No rushing about, no plans and definitely no online time.

That's just what myself and the family did today. It was a perfect day of relaxing, adventuring and just building bonds.

We went to the local park (it's massive). The weather was pretty nifty.

That's the big pond in the middle. One of the swans came over and tried to hang with us but we told him he wasn't cool enough and to beat it. Drooling fool

Then we picked up a much cooler dude to hang with. This little tadpole. My daughter squealed so loudly with excitement that all the dogs in the park ran away.

We also saw a leech swimming about. Cool little critters but I couldn't catch that one.

After that we went for a trip in the dappled bluebell wood

Then we debated what to do. My wee lass, like the free spirit she is plonked herself down by the pond again and said she wanted to watch the world go by. I said heck yeah and joined her.

And you know that old saying. When the crow flies over the clock, it's time to go.

So it was ice creams and off home. I feel super recharged and all set for the week ahead!! Hope you all had a great weekend :0)

Beautiful way to rest and relax with family!

It sure was!!

Awesome @meesterboom. The best time is to relax on the weekend with the family. I had an awesome Sunday thus far as well. Very nice park you got over there. Beautiful flowers :)

It's the best park for miles. Has a waterfall and an ancient ravine but we never made it that far today. Hope you continue to have a good one!!

The outdoors, water and oxygen allows us to relax. Thank you!

It does, it breathes life into us!!

Beautiful shots, dude! It seems you guys don't even need to travel far to bask in such a relaxing atmosphere. With all the gains you got from your trading, you deserve the break, man. I hope that tadpole goes home and tells his friends and family that he was held by an online celebrity. I bet all the other pollywogs would be hella jealous. HELLA jealous.

As another old saying goes, A weekend without any tantrums is a fun, fist-pumping-against-the-clouds-while-cursing-the wind-free weekend. At least, that's how I translated it. I might be wrong though. I might be wrong.

You say you might be wrong... Will I say youmight be absolutely 100% on the money!!!

Hehe, he will probably go home to the other talks and alert the tadpole police that he was actually bodily lifted out of the water!! I better watch my step next time I go for a swim!!

Ohhh interesting. Differing perspectives. I like it. Why wait until you go for a swim? You better watch yourself ... every time!!! :o

RIBBIT!!! A frightening chorus bounced off the walls.

Even when I go to bed!!!!

Especially when you go to bed. * whispers * Especially

Few pastimes better than just sitting and watching the world go by.

I hear that!!

Long time no see, tadpole. :) Enjoyed a lot. @meesterboom

I hadn't seen one for ages either. It took me right back to my childhood!!

Gorgeous my friend, envying those blue skies right now, we've got rain, rain, and so more rain here.
Happily I was too lit to care!
Looking forward to weather that affords me the opportunity to show off my parks!

I am looking forward to seeing them. Maybe you could combine the two activities and give us some drunken park tours!! ;0)

I just put up a 'dreemitsworld' post--and it's not quite a park, but it is the sight where lots of drinking has commenced, haha!

Great photos, what a delightful day out

lol that's got to be the saddest swan I've ever seen in my life

Thank you! Hehe, he did look a little down for some reason!

Your wee Lass looks like a dynamo in her blue rubber boots. Too cute! What a shot to get the crow over the clock!

It was a fluke the crow!! I am impressed at the fluke though! Yeah she loves her wellies sun or no sun!!!

Did not know that saying about the crow and the clock. :-)
Looks like you and your family had a lovely day out. Beautifull photos. That Swan is a drooler hahaha.

Hehe it was hard getting a photo of it with its head above water. I think it was trying to eat all the tadpoles!!

Great timing then, just like the one with the crow!

The crow was a total accident. In fact I didn't even know it was in the frame lol!¡

Hahaha, those are the best ones!

Beautiful! That looks like some quality time

Ah it was, I feel ridiculously tranquil! Just what I need before the weekly grind!
