Guess the Temperature

Today was Kirstin's first spendthrift day of March break.  Two free activities were planned with varying success.

After lunch we set off on a hike to the children's farm in Bronte Creek.  It must be the gazillianth time we've been there and jacob complained that the play barn was too full but there was a baby goat and one of the peacocks was trying to impress a bored looking female so the kids got to see its feathers in full display which was pretty cool.

So judging by this photo what temperature do you think it was?
The answer, a rather balmy 10 degrees.  Not quite t-shirt weather Rose but nearly there.

The way home took rather a long time because we went the back way and although I told the kids we weren't lost I didn't know where the hell we were for most of the way.  Oh well, it was good excercise.

After we got home and recovered we tried to go and see raptors (birds, not dinosaurs) up close and personal at the library.  Not sure if this is their natural habitat and we didn't get to find out as far too many people turned up so we couldn't get in.  Still, we got some books out and Rose met her friend from school so it wasn't an complete failure.
