Robin Hood- a day of stealing from the rich and eating it ourselves

Today we are in Nottingham, the home of Robin Hood. We started off our day by looking at the Rodin Hood statue outside of Nottingham castle, home to the dangerous sheriff of Nottingham.



We then made our way to Sherwood Forest, Robin Hood's hideout. We found that the local orienteering club had made a permanent course around Sherwood forest. So after we looked at the Robin Hood exhibition and watched the information movie we went for a walk around the orienteering course and also did a spot of geocaching.The course took us to the highlight of the whole forest... The Major Oak, said to be the hideout of Robin Hood and his Merry Men.



We found a hole in the fence for dogs to get through.


This was an enjoyable day out only to be cut short by the terrible weather.
