Passover Fact 5

There should be a picture with this but it’s friends and family only… sorry!

Anyhoo, fact 5 is a positive one and there’s food involved! One of the good things about Passover is that it often falls across the Easter bank holiday weekend and this means and good old family outing, complete with picnic. Just to make it clear… we don’t wait all year for a family outing, but these ones seem more special.

This year we loaded up with unleavened food stuffs and headed to Putney to watch the Boat Race between Oxford and Cambridge, a first for the Snappys. For those of you who have not seen it yet, look away now… Cambridge won 🙂

We got a good spot on the river bank path opposite where the teams came out and set up camp with our picnics and children. They went off for a while with the Mums to let the Dads play cameras for a while. When they came back they were resplendent in the obligatory face paints and managed to acquire about a dozen purple balloons between the three of them, although these were liberated later to ensure a place on the train home!

They all made it back to the river bank for the off and cheered the teams as they rowed past. We all had a great time and the picnic got almost finished, even the Passover wine, which went down a treat!
