Spring has finally arrived

Over the last few days we have finally had the feeling that spring has arrived. The sun has been shining, it has been warm, and there are flowers and new leaves on the trees.

Last weekend our German friends Silke and Stefan stayed with us with their almost six month old son Niklas. Yana and Anya were really excited about the "bebe" (as Anya called him). We had a great day in Windsor with a picnic alongside the Long Walk, with views of Windsor Castle. The weather was great and we thought it was appropriate to have our first outdoor-ice cream of the year.

Today we spontaneously decided to go for a bike ride to Hurley. Yana was in nursery, so we only had Anya. She was really good and enjoyed the hour and a half in her little bike seat.
