Sunshine and showers this morning so we decided to visit Dinosaur World which is between Denmark and Walpole. Although the name suggests Dinosaurs, the main attractions for the children were the reptiles and birds. We arrived just as the snake and lizard handling got underway.

Emily and Oliver loved it! Within minutes they were adorned with various slithering or crawling reptiles and seemed totally at ease. Next it was outside to the birds which also seemed happy to perch on anyone who stood still. Some birds seemed to be over the novelty of perching on people, preferring instead to steal shoe laces or anything else that dangled (Emily’s hair bands for example).

After a couple of hours it was time for lunch. Charlotte suggested the Lake House which is on the way back to Denmark. It was an inspired suggestion! Excellent food in a beautiful setting.

By the time we got back to the campsite the heavens had opened so we sat inside and played Junior Monopoly. I won!
Hope it took you less time to pack up and get to your next destination! I do love your descriptions, there is definitely a book to be written!
