London Wetlands Centre

---

Yesterday we went to the London Wetlands Centre which for us is an easy 15min bus ride and although you are obviously still in London it feels like some swampy open field. Full of English and migrating birds (They have a board up like at the airport where you can find out which ones are departing, arriving, boarding or delayed. Cute. On Saturday Christine was taken there with a friend and her family (a sleepover afterwards) and then convinced us to go yesterday (Sunday even though we had plans to go somewhere else) because it is fun for kids with pond life science . stuff and also games for identifying the birds (with binoculars) but theres also a wetlands adventure playground for them too.

It is a beautiful place. We bought a yearly pass because it is such a beautiful place to visit when city life gets too much.
