Kent Life

He was up way too early!
A day out with Granddad (and Grandma and daddy!) to visit the museum of Kent life and find out more about where Granddad grew up. Mummy got to stay home and indulge herself! So, yep I rearranged the lounge and tidied, fun!

Anyway their day out. Up super early on a saturday, ugh. To arrive at the www.kentlife.org.uk Museum and find that they were having their Hop and Harvest festival alongside all the other things they have to do.
They Picked hops and made barrels, learnt about living conditions of the seasonal workers and met some of the animals who live there. They won races and played games while the grown ups sampled some of the finest beers and cider Kent had to offer!

Everyone has agreed bout how well this museum was set up and run and a return visit is planned for next year to show me!
