A four-day Easter bank holiday weekend is the perfect opportunity to unwind and spend time with family and friends. And with the sun shining and temperatures topping 21 degrees Celsius in Nottingham, hundreds of families could be seen enjoying the sun and great outdoors at Gedling Country Park.
People of all ages were soaking up the sun - from children playing in the play area, to older couples enjoying an ice cream together; it seemed all of Gedling was out enjoying the time off and nice weather. And a number of families could be seen spending quality time together.
Keely Jones, 34, from Bestwood Park, was enjoying the great outdoors with her daughter Aleigha Wales-Jones, aged six. Keely said: "We've come here today and we're going swimming a little later. We're going to come back here on Sunday as well to see cousins. I'm so glad the sun has come out, but it's a shame it hasn't come out sooner. The kids have been off for two weeks but at least it has come out."
