We left around 9am it was horrible and drizzly all the way however, Sophie had her Fairy Wand with her and wished for better weather and at lunch time the weather improved and turned out lovely, thank you Sophie.
Bob ended up missing the turning and we ended up in Norwich where we were supposed to be avoiding however we made it.
We started off entering via The Grubbles Greeting Gate.
Not wanting us to get lost it was signposted very well
We went along The Treachourous Trail and passed The Boggle Village
We then went to Bewilderville, Sophie was too scared to go up, but the boys enjoyed themselves
We then proceeded to the Muddle Maze
At the centre of the Maze was some steps and a rope bridge, to begin with Sophie refused to go up because she has a fear of heights but with coaxing from her Grandad she managed it, we were proud of her and she was so pleased with herself.
Sophie is now on a roll and decided to go back to Bewilderville and climb the Tree House, something she was too scared to do before
After managing that she proceeded to continue on and went over rope bridges and down stairs etc
We then had a packed lunch, it was interesting finding somewhere to sit down but we made it, and then continued on to The Broken Bridge where once again Sophie excelled herself this was very very high, she was upset by a rope ladder but she MADE IT!!!!!!
We then went to look at The Den Building
Then down the Trail following The Bag Man
Then we made our way to Sccaaaaary Lake near The Snack Shack for a Boat Trip, unfortunately because we were a big group, the Smiths took the boys in a boat and we took Sophie in another boat
The boat trip took us to Bewilderboat Junction where we got off and had a look round the shop Bizarre Bazaar, which proved very expensive.
We had a lovely day, the weather came out nicely, children were quite well behaved.
Hello from BeWILDerwood!
ReplyDeleteWe really love that you had a fab day out with the Boggles and Twiggles in the woods. We're so glad to hear that Sophie conquered her initial fear of going up high in the trees, and decided to join the Twiggles in their world up high! It's not so scary after all is it?! That's what we're all about - encouraging everyone (including the adults!) to be adventurous and brave on our (not so scary) jungle bridges and rope ladders, not to mention the steepest slide.
We think you've got a good point about needing a few more places to sit down at picnic time; we've recently put in more picnic tables and benches, and have plans to add even more log seating around the park over the winter, so next season you should be able to come back and find ample places to rest your weary bods, ready for an afternoon of even more energetic fun!
I wonder if you spotted Mildred in the Scaaary Lake? She's a friend of Swampy who lives in the Boggle village, which you've so nicely caught on camera. Have you read the BeWILDerwood story? As you made your way around the wood, you will have followed Swampy's adventures over the Broken Bridge, and around the Muddle Maze - I wonder if you knew you were treading in such a famous little Boggle's footsteps?
I hope we might see you again someday soon.
Best BeWILDerwood wishes from the Twiggle at the top
