New forest - Thursday 14th July

Today we were going to leave for going to go to the New Forest to see Grandma and Grandad while we are over here. Grandma and Grandad were driving from all the way from Glasgow in Scotland. That drive took them about eight hours so they stayed the night in a place called Banbury. We had to have breakfast early so that we could get away early so that we could do alot. We left here about quarter past nine. We took our iPods and I took my nintendo so that Archie could play on it in the car. The trip was about an hour  so we arrived about half past ten. We had quite a boring trip but we didn't ask mum all the time are we there yet? I helped mum find the place where we needed to be because we hadn't been there for a  tleast two years or not more, so I read off a piece of paper that mum had wrote out of where we needed to turn and things like that. When we got there Grandma & Grandad were already waiting down the road standing there so that they could show us where the B&B was. When we wanted to go inside and have a look the lady pushed us out because she said that we couldn't come in because she was cleaning their room. So instead we went to find a shopping place. We found Waitrose which took us a little while to find but we found it. We went inside & had a cup of tea & coffee & a little bite to eat. Next we went to find food & things like that for a picnic. We found some food & went to find a beach. We found this really nice beach where we ate our picnic & played for a couple of hours. Then we went back to the car. On the way back Mum bought us each an ice cream. We went to find our hotel when where we found it we went for a shower. Then we went into a little river and played for a bit, then we went to bed.

(In the New Forest horses roam free & often walk in the middle of the road stopping the traffic. Each horse is owned & every year the horses are rounded up for counting. Unfortunately every year 100 horses are killed by traffic)
