Glorious day

I have had the most fantastic morning. The weather has been beautiful and I took the opportunity given to me by a cancelled meeting to walk around the school and simply observe.

PE lessons were going on outside and I saw two science lessons being taken on the grounds. In one of them boys in the senior half of the school were making rockets out of plastic bottles and foot pumps. They flew miles in the air! I wish that I had been able to do experiments like that at school.

The grounds were looking amazing and the smell coming from the trees and plants was heavenly. It brought back many happy memories of my own time at prep school. I remember distinctly the smell of the azaleas on the way down to the swimming pool.

Wouldn't it be wonderful if every day was like this!
