Superbowl and Chatelherault

Ally and Cat stayed up very late yesterday evening (Sunday) to watch the Superbowl. Sandy had ordered a Superbowl box for them which included bunting, a mini American football, pizzas, snacks and drinks. Ally dressed all in red to support the Kansas City Chiefs including a red KCC hat, and he really looked the part! Cat made an American cookie cake which looked like a giant cookie! James and I headed to bed just as their evening started. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 31 - 9, but I don’t think Ally and Cat minded too much. 

Today James and I woke up bright and early to find that the sky was blue so we headed to Chatelherault Country Park for a walk. It was cold but sunny and we walked up to the Green Bridge and back down the other side of the river. A cyclist warned us that there was flooding just before the bridge, and so there was, but we managed to avoid it by climbing over a fence into a field for a short distance, then returning to the path. We continued on down through Burncluith where there were some lovely old houses then over the bridge back into the park. It was a good 13 km walk.
