High Lodge

The kids were out of school this past Friday so I planned a little outing for us. We went to High Lodge in Thetford Forest just about 20 minutes or so from our house. The weather was perfect and we had such a fun day!

This "swing" is SO fun


There was one area in the forest where they had a bunch of wood cut up to build your own little hut. This is our before picture (more like in progress picture)

And here it is finished. Allie and I really enjoyed this activity....and didn't want to leave.

The trail we walked along had all of these playgrounds and fun stops on the way, making the hike much more fun and enjoyable for the kids. This particular playground was massive, a bit scary actually. I did climb up with Blake so he could do it and then he stayed closer to the ground and mastered this rope bridge thing.

Here is the playground

Another fun thing......the zipline. I think there is a zipline at just about every good playground around here. This one was definitely the best we've come across so far though. Blake has to get right in on the action too.

Here the girls are posing with an Ape. There is a Go Ape Adventure course here....they have a junior one too that we will definitely be hitting up  sometime in the next three years. Blake didn't want to get near this scary guy.
