We got up really early today which is a bit weird for a Sunday....
But we're going somewhere!!! We got a bus here and then walked up the road a bit
We're getting a train!!
AND we got a window seat!!
Love this bit...!
Ooo, there's Battersea Power Station over there!
We're crossing the Thames!
We used the facilities and left them a beer mat. Then washed our paws carefully.
Oh!! We're getting the underground!!!
We got the first train that came along but it wasn't going to where we wanted so we got off at the next stop.
On the opposite platform, they had a labyrinth map on the wall!
Then we got another train to here!!!
We're going to Kew Gardens!!!!!!
We left another beer mat on a railing on our way
And then crossed the road and left another one here!!
Here we are!!!
We met up with a few people first and then headed off to see the Henry Moore sculptures.
There's 30 of them apparently...!
Oh here's one!!! Oh wow!!
Rather fab view eh?! This one's Number 1.
We decided not to do them in any particular order and just to wander around wherever....
That's one of the big greenhouses..... it's massive!
Oh wow! That looks like a sossidge dog!!
It#s not though - it's an arched leg. Who knew?!
We haven't been here for ages - we really like it here.
Oh, number 29 next....
Oh!!! A standing Knife edge.... yeah I can see that.
Hmm...
I love that tree!! It's prickly!!!
Ooo is that a bowling ball?
Nope, it's a locking piece!
Oh there's a group of three here..... pokey uppy ones!
OK, Upright no 7. Yep, that's upright!!
Interesting.....!!
After a while we came across this which is called The Hive. Apparently you can climb into it but we didn't!
OH!!! None of us had seen that before!! It's a giant wooden mushroom!!!
Then we found another Henry!!
Spindle piece?? Hummm...
Ooo....
That was a Totem head....
Ooooo! That's a Warrior!!
See?!
Ooo interesting.....
Yep, that's certainly an oval with points!
Ooooo look here now!
Oh this one's interesting -
Different view from different angles!!
Wow!
Very intersting!
I like this one!
Double oval, yes indeedy!!
Oooo!!! Foxy!!!
Do you see? Near the tree....!
He went over to the people on the bench begging for food!
Can't really see him in this photo but he did get some munchies thrown to him!
oh wow!!
These are sheep!!
Quite like that!
Quite like that one too!
Like those trees too!
We decided we needed to use the facilities so we headed off past the Pagoda
And we found this place - after using the facilities and washing our paws, we decided to have our packed lunches.
After a bit of a break, we decided to continue our sculpture hunt!!
This one's number 12!
Oh wow!!
This is interesting!
It's in two pieces!
That's from one end....!
Yep, definitely cut into two!
Oooo!
Oh wow! This is another knife edge one...
Well knife edge two pieces....!!
Oh here we go!! It's a person!
Yep, definitely reclining!!
Oh!!
Oh....!!
Oh right! Three pieces reclining and draped!
OOOOOoooo!!!
This one's interesting!!
I think this one's my favourite!!
Hill Arches?
Ooo it's another person one!
This one's rather good!
You can see one of the greenhouses back in the distance!!
Yeah you can tell it was a reclining person!
Ooo!
Another person one, I think!
Oh, perhaps not!!!
After all that walking my feet had worn out!!
We'd seen 19 out of the 30 sculptures and most of the others were at extreme and opposite ends of each other so we decided to call it quits for the day and head home. We said goodbye to everyone and headed off.
On our way back to the station, we found some pretty tiles!
And here we are! We've had a lovely day today!!
And we're off!!
We went across the Thames on an Underground! Isn't that weird?!?!
And we got off here
Oh hang on, are we getting a bus??!
We are!!!
They got a floppy disc, too!
We went past Hyde Park Corner
And we got off here!!! We're going shopping!!!!
(we'll show you later!)
Then we had to get a bus back to the station.
So we did!!
They got a beer mat too!
We went past Green Park
And got off at the station!!
There's Battersea Power Station!
And we crossed the Thames again!
And back over the viaduct...
And back to Brighton!
We're going home!!
We got a number 7 bus
And got off at the end of the route! Just had a short walk home.
We got some more coffee, but discovered it was coffee beans, and not the ground coffee we normally get!
That's OK, we have a coffee grinder!
We got some biscuits too!
And another bubble bar. Andrea's weird like that.
But what a fun day out!!
