The Bay was set up for the Weekend Food Festival so there was plenty for Beauty to see when she had finished with her puddles.
AND I am pleased to say that her boots were well and truly waterproof.Which is more than can be said for my CROCS!
It was nice that the rain had stopped and that the sun had come out.
The grass around the Helter Skelter was absolutely sodden so this weekend I predict a MUD BATH!
The Norwegian Church.Beauty thoroughly enjoyed puddle jumping.
This puddle was so deep that it came up to my ankles!I had to run into the puddle to stop Beauty sitting in the water!
As I said yesterday, it may not seem like it but the sun does occasionally shine in Cardiff.
The proof.
Beauty had a lovely time.
As well as these photographic memories, I also caught a BLOODY cold!
Our next excursion will definitely be somewhere dryer.
Fiona is totally convinced that adults are strange creatures(well her mother anyway!).
I belong to Cardiff Freecycle
it is a site where people give things away for free rather than put them into landfill or allow further energy to be used recycling them.
Recently I managed to get an old Singer sewing machine and a portable TV.
As well I respond to peoples requests for items.
This week I gave away some of my jam jar collection to someone who wants to make jam(I left them in a basket by my back gate as I had to go out) and I am also giving away a beginners Guitar book( awaiting collection in the empty but clean rabbit hutch).
Fiona being a product of a disposable age,cannot get her head around just not going to a shop and buying something. I think the leaving things in a rabbit hutch also throws her a bit!
However,in defense of the rabbit hutch, Amazon also uses it to put my parcels in when I am out so I am not the only crazy one.

What lovely photos! The carnival rides are so pretty, some of the ones you see are so "industrial" looking, not very decorative.
What fun "puddle jumping" must have been! My kids would love that! I too have discovered that crocs aren't so great when it is wet outside. I've tried wearing them when I'm gardening.
I'm on a yahoo group that freecycles around here. I have a friend that is very resourceful with it, she both obtains and gives away some amazing things! It really shows that one person's trash is another person's treasure!
I AM ON MY WAY TO PICK UP A SEWING MACHINE THIS AFTERNOON FROM A FELLOW FREECYCLER,LETS HOPE IT WORKS.
Freecycle sounds a great idea. I think there is something similar on-line called Freebay...
I loved this posting because it felt like you captured the whole lovely day...and it is nice to see some people live somewhere...where the summer weather isn't 90 degrees (F) and 90% humidity with bugs that will suck all the blood out of your body...
Hope you get your energy back soon!
Not being a hot weather person Jerry,no matter how much I complain, I am grateful that I do not live where it is really hot.
AND as for the bugs.....I visited New Orleans in September and BIG UGLY bugs were everywhere and the worst thing was the fact that they could fly! Bugs scare me!
