Final Day Trip

Last year we took a 3 day holiday with some friends from the ASHA shop up to the Peak District---beautiful woods, quaint English villages and we stayed at an amazing hostel. An old stone manor house that (thankfully) didn't fit my hostel stereotype. Our friends wanted to go away again, but that wasn't really feasible this year so....we opted for a daytrip with them.

A Model Village was the attraction they recommended so we headed off with curiosity.

The kids loved it as everything was at the right height for their viewing pleasure. Nicholas was thrilled with the trains chugging throughout the villages---he pushed people out of the way and chased after the trains. It was cute and was the start of an obsession.

"Choo-Choo" is the favorite word of each day and his train set easily occupies him for an hour or two. Ahhh....we love little boys!
