We went down to Castleward today for the first day of the Pumpkinfest. The sun came out and the place was packed.
As it is Finley's first pumpkin season, we wanted it to be a special one rather than picking one from the supermarket as we usually do.
Finley modelling his first ever Pumpkin..
We went for the large pumpkin this year, so that I can make both pie and soup out of it. I'll be looking to bake the seeds in some seasoning to eat as well.
The building at Castleward is beautiful, steeped in history with the must amazing settings. The walk from the main building down to the farm stretches the legs.
Game of Thrones has filmed scenes down there as well.
Finley had a great day looking all around him and was beat by the time we got him back to the car and he had a good sleep.
We stopped in Strangford for Fish and Chips and to watch the ferry take cars and passengers over to Portaferry.
