Wallby's Farm Park

There have been quite a few gloomy, rainy days out here these past two weeks. Still, we're trying not to let the weather deter us from having some family-fun on the weekends. Here are a few shots from Wallby's Farm Park, outside of Carlisle:

I don't remember places like this existing when I was a kid-- I think it would have thoroughly blown my mind to have gone to a gigantic playplace like Wallby's when I was Frankie's age. Wallby's has a giant outdoor playground, a zipline, trampolines, sandboxes, a go kart track, a petting zoo, a corn maze, a barrel train, and a huge indoor play area with massive slides and ball pits. It's pretty amazing, especially if you're five years old.

I really love taking Frankie on outings like this. On weekends, I hate staying cooped up in the house. My favorite thing is to get out of the house, go for a drive, and travel around our corner of the UK. And when the outing includes something that's actually fun for Frankie-- even better.
