Easter Monday

This is traditionally the day in which we join everyone else on the roads trying to wind our way home - sitting in traffic, bored of I-Spy and all generally fed up. Not this time.

We booked an additional night so enjoyed watching everyone else pack up and leave allowing us to have the whole camping field to share between ourselves and one other tent. Out came the football's, aerobie and rocket launcher and a great late morning was had by all. We then had a quick trip to a local camping and chop - stocked up on more equipment as you do, some vital and some just because... we all do it! and headed back for a bite to eat for lunch. 

Games galore filled the afternoon together with exercising the dogs - mainly chasing the balls being thrown for them. We then proceeded down to reception to challenge the on-site 18 hole crazy golf course before heading to the campsite pub for another great meal as the sun was setting. 


A perfect ending to a great few days away

Annual Easter Trip

So today we have been to the School Easter Assembly - packed as usual but managed to get a seat - this is the first I have been. so am somewhat of an assembly virgin.I thought the whole performance was great until both my children started getting upset as they were led off stage back to class.

As soon as it had finished both my wife and I headed home and started packing for the Easter Break - hitching up the new to us (but old) caravan and heading for Clippesby Hall in Norfolk. We've been there a few years now at Easter and simply love it!

Collecting the children from school hitched up, we travelled for 2 hours without hassle to our destination - set up relatively quickly - not as quick as our Karsten Tent! but hey ho....we'll improve and settled down having played a few games on the cold camping field.
