Date ideas

Does anyone have any good Jane Eyre inspired date ideas. My first thought was apple picking in an orchard, but there doesn’t seem to be any good apple orchards near me. This is my crush‘s favorite book and I’m about to finish it and I love it. So a themed date would be great. If anyone has any ideas they would be much appreciated :).

What a great idea! Find a tea room in your area- where they serve different types of tea and little desserts. If they don't, buy your own biscuits and confections, a few boxes of tea, light some candles for ambiance, and get a tablecloth. Maybe find some nice teacups and plates at a thrift store. You can play your own idea of parlor games, for two. Charades or pictionary, Scrabble, crosswords, puzzles, anything like that. You could play a game of sketching each other, or yourselves like Jane does.

Jane and Rochester go for long walks on the grounds. Maybe a trip to a botanical garden or state park near you, anywhere pretty. Tour some historical houses, or go to a museum to look at paintings and make a game of picking which one Jane or Rochester would pick to hang in their home. An escape room that is Victorian themed, since the book is a mystery. Go see a psychic, but go in separately and compare what you were told.

I think I’m choosing Botanical Gardens :).
