Bubbles

It was Robin's 3rd birthday today.  We, with Z, arrived fairly early, to take Alfie, so R & G could take Robin to a cafe that was not dog friendly, but was one of his favourite places.  We arrived as Robin was opening some of his presents, including a "bubble mower" - see extra.  

We went off to Söderåsens National Park with the dogs and had a lovely walk.  I've been struggling with hip pain after my second knee replacement.  It started several months before the op, and I knew it was related to my abnormal gait.  I assumed it would improve after the op, but am still having problems 6 months down the line.  Today I realised that I'm still not using my right knee properly, and am putting undue stress on the hip - something to work on over the next month or 2.  Today I managed 4km, including a significant climb to a viewpoint.  

We then returned to R & G's home, to see Robin open some more presents.  Z had bought him another bubble making toy - a fire engine.  Robin is really "into" bubbles at the moment, so another very well received present, by Robin, if less popular with his parents, as it is very noisy!
