RE: Stopping To Smell The Flowers

Oh we did walk or cycle to schools didn't we? Children get driven by car or catch bus now not how we remember it.

Good you got to take your daughter along enjoying a chat and pretending you are a tourist in your own town, !LOLZ something I am teased about daily.

Lovely photography along the way, especially ducks keeping robot patrol!

Don’t you hate it when someone answers their own questions?

Ducks keeping patrol hahahaha - love it

I was telling the kids, I am not concerned about the distance because 2kms is very manageable even with the school bag but the roads are not designed for pedestrians. And we love making a one-lane road into two when it is busy. And everyone's always rushing rushing
So it's taken some years but I have finally said okay to the older boys cycling to school but every time they leave the house, I say a little big prayer.

Thank you @joanstewart for making me laugh <33

Distance to boys schools when younger sometimes they walked home from school, depending on heat, or caught bus home. Too many children had been knocked off bicycles or they were stolen so we stopped them cycling before they started literally.

Have a great week, we worry about the guys going alone yet we did it, more vehicles on the roads makes this difficult, times have changed or we worry too much!
