Stage 9: Staines to Windsor

Dear Bertie,

Today you were 22 weeks old and it is Christmas Eve. We have some special guests for our walk today - Daddy and French Grandma. Lucky you!

Daddy volunteered to carry you and I had the backpack full of water, like a donkey.
We headed back to Staines and crossed the bridge again.

And the Swan Inn again where we all had breakfast.

Then we started our walk and the sun was shining.We passed an old timber shipyard which smelled of oil.

Through a lovely big park with a statue of Queen Elizabeth near to the Magna Carta monument. 

Soon the path became very rural and we had fields either side of us; the lovely English countryside!



We went under a lovely bridge called, guess what? The Albert Bridge!

Mummy then cocked up the route and we tried to enter the river path in Windsor Park which is closed to the public; only the royals are allowed in! So we retraced our steps and went via Datchet and then through a big park where Daddy took you on to the rugby pitch.

In Windsor, we stopped at a lovely pub on the riverside and ate fish and chips with beer.

Then we walked through the town.

Up to Windsor Castle where the Queen lives and there is a big statue of Queen Victoria outside.

Then it was back home for bathtime!
