Penguins at Harewood House bird garden

Today I took my nephew to Harewood house and what a fantastic place for a family friendly day trip. These are the cute penguins we found enjoying the sunshine in the bird garden near the Terrace Gallery and bar. If you are lucky enough to arrive there at 2pm you’ll get to see the penguins being fed.

Places to relax at lunchtime in Leeds city centre

Another day of sunshine in Leeds and I found an extra spring in my step. It is the first time this year where I have had the opportunity to spend my lunchtime break outside in the sunshine. Armed with a sandwich, drink and my iPod, I relaxed in Merrion Street gardens.

My favourite places to relax at lunchtime

» Millennium Square
» Park Square
» Victoria Gardens
» Brewery Wharf

Those of you, who work, live or study in the city centre where do you go to relax?
