A day with Beatrix


We spent the day with Beatrix Potter, well, sort of. When that door opened we wandered into the World of Beatrix Potter, something that was able to be enjoyed by even the youngest of us. And certainly by the eldest. (That's me!) 





You're not supposed to touch the exhibits but if you can't read I imagine sitting in Mrs Tiggy-Winkle's kitchen just makes sense. Both little ladies in this family sat for tea with her. 


And our sweet Autumn boy continued to be enchanted by Mr Jeremy Fisher and his fishing adventure.



And then we went around the lake to where Ms Potter lived and wrote many of her tales. There were sheep and the entire rabbit family hopping around.


We saw where Mr John Joiner had helped Tom Kitten from the floor and watched robin red-breast flitting about the garden. 












And on the way back we stopped for a pot of tea and a few moments to enjoy the picturesque village. 
Thank-you Beatrix.
