Larmer Tree

Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

We just got back from the Larmer Tree festival and we had so much fun. It was the best festival I have ever been to. It had an enchanted forest which glowed with fairys at night time. We spotted wild macaws and loads of peacocks and peacock babys. There were creative workshops. You could get a massage. There was delicious food and drink from around the world. A huge variety of fun bands eve Mum and Dad would like to dance to. And learned to juggle, ride a unicycle and hoola hoop.

I’m gonna write a few blogs on it and put some photos up over the next few days.

Heres some photos:

I finally got my new toy out on the water on the weekend. Its quite fun and stable. We only used it as a sail boat but you can also use it as a windsurfer too. Here are some photos. I lost my shoe and had to do man overboard drill.

Live Earth Concert

Monday, July 9th, 2007

The Live Earth Concert was good. The sun came out and we even got burnt. We had allocated seats in the stand, with the toilets and drinks very close. Not quite the atmosphere of down the front, but definitely more comfy.

It was quite ironic really, a concert to make people more environmentally aware, yet they served drinks in plastic containers. There were so many used plastic containers people were making a huge snake out of them. Here is a picture of the snake.

 We got there early and this is before the crowd arrived.

Is it Summer or Winter?

Tuesday, July 3rd, 2007

This weather is AWFUL. Its just not getting any better. I have all these new toys and its too wet and awful to use them. I can see why they say poms are always complaining about the weather. This is the worst summer yet!

I have booked a kite surfing lesson for Thursday and Friday this week. Wanna bet it will be miserable for that too.

We are going to a festival next week, lets hope it fines up by then. Dont want a repeat of Glastonbury mud.
