Our neighbour John has been building a track for his steam trains in their garden. Today the kids had a chance to ride in them as it winds around between the trees, and even over the pond! It's a very atmospheric experience with steam billowing in your face and the sound of all that huffing and chuffing!
Lewis even got a science lesson on how the steam engine functioned. All handmade in his garden shed.
This afternoon Lewis has been trying to sail his Wayfarer model at Hatchet Pond - he's made sails, daggerboard, tiller and rigging etc and sails it with some long pieces of string.
