We have mostly been...
Having - an sort of unplanned blog holiday. I knew we'd be away over Easter and had this vague idea that "of course, it won't be that much bother to put together a couple of posts while we're away!" Ah well, living the life rather than blogging about it took priority - no matter, it's just a hobby after all :-)
Travelling - up to Anglesey, along the North Wales coastline then down through the West Midlands across to Stratford upon Avon before heading slowly home. In total we did about 670 miles over the 10 days and I had it all planned out in advance using Google Maps, yup I am thatsad, OCD, organised.
Enjoying - the gorgeous sunny weather. We certainly picked the right week off work for a holiday - we only had one murky evening and one murky morning the whole time.
Visiting - lots of museums and places; as well as just enjoying all the different towns, we also did the Cambrian Railway Museum (in Oswestry), the Severn Valley Railway, Kidderminster Railway Museum, the MAD Museum (in Stratford) and three of the houses run by Shakespeare's Birthplace Trust (Shakespeare's Birthplace, Hall's Croft and Harvard House).
Eating - far too many big breakfasts and far too many chips and slabs of cake. But that's what a holiday is for isn't it?
Geocaching - After finding our first few caches back in February and March we managed to get our total number of finds from 4 up to 56. We also had fun with all the lingo - "driving the geowagon around waiting for all the muggles to clear before doing a quick cache and dash" - it's a little bit like this weird secret world that's all around us and most people don't even know it's there. Think it almost warrants its own post!
What did you get up to over Easter?
