Afloat with Anatidae

[andrewducker]

We went swimming this afternoon, which is one of the things I love Center Parcs for - warm pools of various kinds, both indoors and outdoors, no matter what time of the year. Two ducks had decided that one of the outdoor pools was a suitable pond for them to take a break in, and happily paddled back and forth. Pesky humans occasionally tried to

You're making it sound VERY inviting! Have fun!

Hooray for holidays! Well-deserved, both. xx

I had never heard of these Parcs, (being a Yank and all that.) They sound lovely.

There are some great places like that here in Northern California, but most are geared towards adults, (Disneyland is in Southern California.) My favorites are on the Pacific Coast, either in/around Big Sur State Park, near the CA/OR border, and around Carmel/Monterey.

mmm, envious. i totally need both my shoulders rearranging and a nice relaxing holiday.

are julie's eyes and hair always that dark and i'm misremembering again, or a trick of the light?

Her hair colour varies, and is very-much dependent on the light on it. Right now it's kinda coppery, and there, with the light behind it, it looked a bit darker.

Havent been to Centre Parcs for years, but I loved it when I went.
Maybe I need to gather a group of people and get one of the tree houses with all the perks sometime. When its not full of kids!

Thats a lovely picture of Julie!

It's finding a time when it's not full of kids that's tricky! It was fairly full this week, presumably because it's the last week of school, so nobody cares if they miss it.

It was a lot quieter when we went last time, which was a September.

Going with more people does sound like fun. More chance of finding people that like the same things!
