Fishing
- Gear Up in Raincoats
- Just bring one fishing rod if you have small children. One sharp hook whizzing past their ears is usually enough. Otherwise, know your blood types.
- Put a life jacket on children who can’t swim so you don’t have to be so hysterical.
- If you find worms gross, you can use something else as bait, like corn, bread, or a piece of sausage. Ice cream is a bad choice; hard to get on the hook and melts quickly.
Safari
If you prefer to stay dry, you can hop in the car and drive out on forest roads. During our recent safari in the local area, we saw a squirrel, a hazel grouse, a lapwing, and two roe deer.
