after lunch today, we set off for Wateringbury, to the marina. The Kingfisher boat was booked for us at 2.30. http://www.kingfishermedwaytrust.org.uk/ The boat is manned by volunteers; they are so lovely and welcoming, and really look after everyone.
Sheila had made some delicious cakes for the 2 hour trip as tea or coffee is served once the boat has left the marina.
The residents and staff enjoyed a relaxing trip first upstream, then down toward Teston lock and back to the marina.
The weather was just about right; plus beautiful scenery, swans, geese and wildflowers to admire along the way.
As for the residents left behind, Christiane, one of our volunteers, arranged a game of Bingo in the music room with a general knowledge quiz after tea and biscuits. Think everyone managed to win at least one prize!
Sounds like you all had a lovely day!
