Another adventure for the Minis

The Minis had another adventure today.  The weather was lovely and we drove out to Freshwater to start our walk at the causeway.


They started by saying hello to the ducks and swans in the River Yar.  This river is tidal and the tide was very low this morning, the ducks didn't seem to mind.


Then they looked across the causeway towards the church.  We were not going that way today but we will take them there soon.  We walked down the disused railway towards Yarmouth.


There are a lot of spring flowers on the island and Snuffy and Tweak found some primroses.


These bears don't enjoy climbing as much as baboons do, but Snuffy did want to have a look at the blossom.


We came to a cafe that is in the old Yarmouth station.  The trains don't run on the west of the island at all now, so there are walks along old railways and cafes in old stations.  This cafe "Off the Rails" is done out with a railway theme.  These seats look like train seats.


They may not be keen on climbing trees, but they enjoyed climbing on this luggage and looking at the old railway lamp.


We always love this railway gate.  The Minis didn't mind climbing on that.


Finally they came across some more spring flowers.  It is a beautiful season on the island and the Minis are enjoying that.
