Brownsea Island with my mum.

I cannot remember the last time I spent time with my mum like this i.e. on a proper day out.

So recently we decided to visit Brownsea Island for the day.  It was amazing that the day we picked the sun was shining.  It is only 15 minutes away. It cost about £10.00 for the return trip and £6.00 to land on the Island.  My mum made me laugh when she bought a senior citizen ticket as I do not see her as one.  She is only 61!!

Firstly, mum treated me to a cup of tea.  It looks warm, it is in the cafe but it was freezing on the boat!

On our walk we saw a Peacock which roam freely on the Island:

Here is my mum I took a quick snap before our walk:

We then spent time walking around the Island and saw some chickens and cockeralls:

We took in the views although there was some sort of works being carried out to improve the Island so were unable to stand at all the vantage points:

We then stopped and had our sandwiches from home and we had a visit from a peacock (after a visit from two ducks which I didn't manage to get on my camera!!

We then walked further and I saw a red squirrel which we thought was a baby look closely:

Then, mum took a pic of me before we sat down in the sun for a while:

After a rest we got on the boat home which goes the scenic route around the other Islands and lasts about 40 minutes!
