Day Trip with Suzie | Part 2

Image
#DaysOut: Part two of the day trip with Suzie saw us visit Mabie Farm Park, just outside New Abbey, then take a little trip down the A710. Taken by Suzie Taken by Suzie Taken by Suzie Such a big child! We were literally the only people in the park for the last hour and a half, so we got to enjoy all of the rides and equipment!  The best thing was a giant pillow which was like a trampoline/boucy castle! The most hilarious was the big slide which you go down in little carts.  You pick up quite a bit of speed and then kind of get thrown out the cart at the bottom.  We were crying with laughter at this!!  In fact, the whole trip to the Farm Park was full of laughter for one reason or another and it was really good to forget life and just have a really good time.  It was much needed. Drumburn Viewpoint This little viewpoint was just off the A710, and there was probably room for 4 cars.  There was a squirrel statue on top of a pole

#DaysOut: Another Friday day off means another little day out / road trip with Suzie!  This time we decided to visit Ayrshire.  We visited Heads of Ayr Farm Park, Electric Brae, Ayr Beach & Cecchini's Italian Restaurant. What a lovely day we chose for it the weather was scorching!  How lucky we were.  The first stop for us was Heads of Ayr Farm Park .  I didn't actually take too many pictures while we were there Chinese Water Dragon Blue Tongued Skink Cute baby prairie dog! Did I mention it was pretty hot?  We decided it would be nice just to have a wee sit down / lie in the sun and relax for a bit, so out came the beach towels, and of course snapchat filters!  Haha. After leaving Head of Ayr Farm Park, we headed for Electric Brae.  I thought it would be good to check it out while we were over that way! The only thing was, I couldn't find anywhere to turn around once we'd passe
