We found the village center.
and a tiny playground
After finding this playground we explored the church right behind it. Then we realized that this was the church we can see from our backyard. We found a path that lead us basically right to our house.......easy walk and a great find! :)
Another day we thought we'd try a walking/biking/horse path that our landlords had told us about it. It's literally right down the road. There are several different ways we can go on the path. We can choose a nice hike through the woods or we can walk straight to the path along the river. It goes on and on. They said that it goes to a village that is a 20 minute drive away so I can only imagine how long it would take us to walk it. It was a beautiful and fun walk and will be perfect for bike rides too!
We don't have any pubs or takeaways in our village but the neighboring village of Stoke Ferry has a takeaway that is outstanding! We tried it for the first time last Saturday........it was packed, good sign. We got one of their Chinese dishes and it was delish! Then for Derek's b-day we grabbed some hamburgers & chips.....again, delish!
We do have the Funny Farm right across the street though. We weren't sure if they served meals or if it was just cuts of meat, eggs, etc that we could buy. We're fairly certain it's the latter. And just a few random pics I took of the kids playing outside while Derek and I were working in the garage.
And last, whoever said there were no bugs here was wrong! There are wasps and spiders galore!!! We are constantly finding new spider webs..........and we also find a spider or spiders everyday. We've been told it's the time of year where they start to lay their eggs so they are going to find their way in the house. I hate spiders so it's really freaking me out! They aren't tiny ones either. This is a pic I got of one and we've seen bigger!
