Husky Racing

We drove through thick fog this morning to eventually arrive in Rendlesham Forest, Suffolk. In an attempt to get fit as a family we are dragging the children through forests and along beaches as often as we can. We've been carefully chosing circular style walks with ice-creams along the way and playgrounds at the end as bribes we find work very well.

 It was a bit spooky through the woods as we started walking as the fog was still pretty thick and the trees tightly packed together. Beams of morning sunlight light penetrated the gaps and the boys thought they were pretty cool. The light seemed to be attracted to frosty spider webs which were obvious sources of excitement to boys with sticks!

Howling back!

To make things even more spooky there seemed to be a pack of wolves howling through the woods! As we continued the eerie noise got much louder and suddenly we were taken aback when a person on a three wheeled contraption passed in front of us dragged along by a pack of huskies. We had inadvertently wandered into a British husky racing event. To be honest I didn't even know this sport existed.

It was really exciting listening to the teams approaching and watching them hurtle around corners.

I've included a link to the British Husky website which has a lot more information.

Just had to have a look on ETSY to see how huskies have inspired artists worldwide.

I have a thing for belt buckles at the moment and am starting a collection (Christmas hint!)
