I miss my Dad every day but I miss him the most in I miss my Dad every day but I miss him the most in November. 

He loved mornings like this, out walking his dog with the fog on the hills. He told me once that the day I was born the fog was so thick he could grab it and feel it fold around him. He said that is the best metaphor for being a parent. The fog is so thick to start with but as I became older it would become less and less to the point you couldn’t grasp it and had to let it go. 

As a parent now with a teen I totally get it. 

Don’t half miss you Mr Edwards 💜

Happy 7th Birthday to the best dog and cat mother Happy 7th Birthday to the best dog and cat mother in the world. I know people always think they have the best dog but seriously Penny is in the top ten. Loyal and loving and just the easiest dog ever to look after and have around. 

We all want another but she has been so good from day one that I’m terrified of what sort of luck we would get with another one 🤦‍♀️ if only humans could be a bit more like Penny (without the sniffing bums part) 🥰

4 Travel Adventure Ideas For Eco-Friendly Families

The benefits of family adventures can’t be undermined. For starters, catching up on each other’s lives is easier while taking a well-deserved break from a monotonous daily routine. Likewise, you can create meaningful memories by visiting new places, understanding different people, trying new cuisines, and so on. Fortunately, you don’t have to forgo adventures as an eco-friendly family, as several ideas can fit your lifestyle and preferences. Here are a few you can consider for the desired outcome. 

  1. Staycation 

Staycations are favourites for eco-friendly enthusiasts for good reasons. First, you can play your part in reducing carbon emissions, as you would avoid travelling in planes. Moreover, staycations can encourage you to leverage more sustainable transportation options like cycling, walking, or public transportation. Likewise, they are more cost-effective so that you can save more while enjoying a great time with your family. While staycations are already sustainable, you can always learn extra eco-friendly tips. For instance, you can invest in low-impact activities like board games, gardening, art and crafts, and so on. Consequently, take a break from cooking and order takeouts from a sustainable restaurant. 

  1. Sailing

If your family enjoys the ocean, you can sign them up for a sailing adventure. Indeed, this activity promotes teamwork, allowing you to bond more with your partner and kids. Moreover, you don’t have to bring your smartphones and other electronic devices, allowing everyone to connect with the surroundings. Sailing is also a great opportunity to teach your kids engineering, accountability, chart reading, ecology, planning, and more. While at it, you can snorkel or scuba dive. You also don’t want to forget about how sustainable this activity is. Sailing leverages hydro, solar, and wind power, making it relatively more sustainable than cruise ships, air travel and other transportation options. When sailing, avoid littering the ocean. As a tip, utilise reusable cups and bottles to prevent waste from accumulating. Also, avoid using the sailboat’s engine except when it’s expedient. You can also use these eco-friendly tips for a more memorable experience. 

  1. Camping 

Admittedly, camping has got a bad rep for being unsustainable. However, the good news is that you can enjoy this adventure without sacrificing eco-friendliness. You only need to follow the right tips. For instance, you can research camping sites with a penchant for environmentally-friendly practices. Most camps often charge fees to gather enough funds to maintain the campsite, and paying these dues can be your way to promote sustainability. Also, resist the temptation to explore off-camping sites; instead, stick to designated areas. This way, you can respect the wildlife, maintain the natural habitat, and avoid hazardous situations. If you desire a more comfortable camping experience, several eco-friendly campervans for sale and caravan sites are available to help you achieve this.

  1. Farm stay holiday 

Farmstay is similar to any other holiday; however, you’d be lodging on a farm. Indeed, farm stay holidays are effective mediums to introduce your kids to sustainable food production. And they are cost-effective, allowing you to save more while helping the environment. You only need to find farms which leverage sustainable practices.
