Tutbury Castle

Yesterday we visited Tutbury Castle in Staffordshire. They held a fairytale weekend over the bank holiday. The fairytale bit was a bit pathetic and it was a shame that the activities which were on you had to pay extra for. It was also very busy as it had been advertised on Groupon. Despite this, we had a really lovely day. The sun came out and James was on top form. He was full of beans and unusually was quite happy to walk and run round instead of being carried. He loved the big wooden dragon on top of the hill, he could peep through it and tried to climb on it. He climbed half way up the hill himself the hard way. John taught him to slide down on his bum which it found funny. We didn't have any tear or whining so a very good day out.
