Writing outdoors. Porthkerry Park.

I have been spending time with groups of children, walking in Porthkerry Park in Barry, and finding inspiration for writing stories. There's a magical woodland.
And a big pebble beach as well. The work the children produced was thoughtful and interesting, and they loved exploring the woods and the shore.
Often on a school outing, the journey on the bus turns out to be the most exciting and memorable thing for the youngsters. Well, for me a ride on the Ranger's quad vehicle was perhaps the best part of the experience!

  1. You're right - when we first took our daughters to York to 'do' all the exciting things there - including Jorvik - what they enjoyed most was the Park & Ride.

  2. I suppose it just reminds us that the simple things are the best!
