Field trip Pt. II: Cuckfield Park

Maddox at the park in Cuckfield. Channeling his Indiana Jones as he balances across the beam. Spinning around really fast! Playing time. Dizzy fun. Swing high and swing low. Another spinning contraption. Bounce, baby bounce! Channeling Captain Kirk. Live Love and Prosper my friend. The boys getting ready to slide. Hanging from the monkey bars.
