Highfields Park in Nottingham is one of our very favourite places to go, and my daughter and I visited after going to the theatre on Sunday to see The Elves And The Shoemaker at Lakeside Arts. Princess had the scooter and I had the camera and we enjoyed getting some fresh air together. It was so nice to get out and about after being stuck indoors with tonsillitis the week before.
It’s a lovely place for walking and spotting a few birds and squirrels. The squirrels are really tame and come right up to you if you haven’t got a screaming 3 year old in tow, honestly! They also seem to have put on a little weight this year, I’m guessing due to the mild winter we’ve had. This little fella stayed still long enough for a quick photograph but was soon off when he heard ‘Come on Mummy’ from the small person along the path.
Highfields Park is next door to Nottingham University, which is also a lovely site to walk round. I really wanted to study here when I was younger, but sadly didn’t make the grade. I did make it to Nottingham Trent University, but it’s not in quite such pretty buildings and grounds unfortunately.
