today's adventure was a car trip to wells and glastonbury in the car with dad, mom and jammma. it was pretty good. i didn't have to do too much boring stuff, just lots of walking. we ended up doing a big circular tour around the glastonbury abbey wall because we should have turned left instead of going right. oh well. at least glastonbury is nice to look at. we stopped at the abbey barn for directions. the barn is really old. i chased some cheeky birds i saw hopping in the grass.
on the way to the abbey we walked past a park. we finally got to the abbey. dad really wasn't into paying a bunch of money to look at a pile of old rocks. mom was all- how about you take hardwick to the park and you guys can eat samiches and play. whooo-hooo. i get to spend time with dad instead of looking at boring rocks.
i had a great time with dad. i really like doing things with him. the park was good. we played for awhile and then went back to the car. mom and jammma showed up a short time later and we all drove off to wells.
i did not want to get out of the car at wells. i was rather put out that dad did not drive us home. there was a bit of a scene which ended in me being pulled out of the car kicking and screaming. mom was all- you are going to wells and you are going to like it. humph.
the big people were hungry so we stumbled around town looking for food. we ended up at subway. i like subway. even though i already had my lunch, i helped jammma eat hers too. mmmmm five-a-day.
the thing to see in wells is their big old church. dad was all- i'm not paying money to go in a church, suggested donation or not. so it was decided that dad and i could skip the church and play outside on the green while jammma and mom got bored to death inside. dad and i wandered around. i found an open door on the side of the church, so i went in. dad followed me. we snuck into the church. we found mom and jammma and walked around with them for a bit. the church was pretty good. there was a big long hall and i ran allllllll the way down it. my feet made a great noise on the stones, it was super loud. mom caught me and i got a good telling off for running in church. according to mom you can only run in church if your pants are on fire. i walked around with dad. we walked past a bunch of candles that were flickering away. i tried to blow them out.
there was a super old clock in the church. when the big hand pointed to 12 it started chiming. some figures came out and spun around a few times, it was pretty cool. after much walking around and looking at things we decided to have a hot chocolate break. awesome! so we all went to the cafe. mom ordered me a hot chocolate with harshmellows and jammma shared her slice of lemon cake with me. i guess mom was right. i am rather liking wells.
and that was how i spent the day. after hot chocolate we walked back to the car and dad drove us home again. i slept pretty much the whole way. now i'm going to get some dinner and then storytime.
