We took a walk around the town – near where our car was parked was a small bay.

St Ives, Cornwall
We took a rare opportunity to get away for a weekend – we stayed at The Sloop Inn in St Ives, an old Inn in the centre of the town overlooking the harbour.
Parrot at Linton Zoo
I took Nils to the local zoo – he loves the animals, especially the birds. Sadly I didn’t get many good pictures of the animals, they all move too quickly and live behind fences.
Audley End sky
The photographer in me can’t let a sky like this pass without at least attempting to take a picture of it.
Audley End folly
We visit Audley End quite frequently, it being one of the closest English Heritage sites to us, but this was the first time I’ve been up to see the folly in the grounds.
Mountfitchet Castle Toy Museum
The toy museum at Mountfitchet Castle is an incredible collection of toys from all eras crammed into a small building on top of the hill by the castle itself.
Stansted Mountfitchet Castle
We went to Mountfitchet Castle – a recreation of a Norman castle. I’m not sure Nils was really old enough to appreciate it but he liked the deer and peacocks and chickens.

The point of divergence
Right now I’m not generating enough pictures for there to be one set per day, so I’m going to look backwards through my photos as well. I’m not going to repeat any of the Stockholm, Andorra or Netherlands pictures – those are already available – but there were some holidays and other times in between which have fallen through the gaps for various reasons.
Nils on a tractor at Wimpole Home Farm
The picnic area at Home Farm has a number of ride-on tractors for children to play with.
(I promise I’m not going to start posting pages and pages of baby pictures)
World War 2 Day at Wimpole Hall
We went to the world war 2 day at Wimpole Hall, where Nils was fascinated by the military vehicles. He particularly liked the jeeps and big trucks.
