Today my Mum and I went to Kew Gardens. Kew was a lovely little town filled with coffee shops, organic delis and pumpkins.
The gardens were huge and very picturesque, we had a sushi picnic next to the pond.
The tree top walk was pretty but a little scary when we realised that the entire structure was swaying from little children running around.
It was half term, so there were kids running and screaming everywhere – I wouldn’t think a botanical garden would make for a great kid’s day out.
My favourite part of the gardens were the aquariums, which had adorable little seahorses, turtles and pufferfish.
In the evening, we went pumpkin shopping. It was the 75th birthday of the Maida Vale studios, so there were lots of people and bands kicking around the street. We came home and I carved this kitty pumpkin, which I’m quite proud of.
