Well it rained overnight and in to this morning and the children went up to the Kids Club, Christopher is really enjoying it whilst Katherine is slowly adapting and Ethan is really not to sure and so would prefer to stay at home, The reason for this is the age groups they use on-site as Christopher who is approx. two years younger and so not in the same group so we can understand the problem of not being with either Katherine or Christopher.
On our part we had a nice delayed breakfast sitting outside of the hut and watching the world go by although it was not to warm but still I could sit there and do my usual round up of checking bank accounts, and writing the blog.
For a change today we have decided to to go to the pizza restaurant just down the road and I must say it was very good and the kids really enjoyed it although Christopher had spaghetti bolognaise whilst the rest of us enjoyed some nicely cooked pizza’s.
What was nice is that the restaurant recognising we had three young children and one baby was very fast to provide the food to the table as by this time it was about 1.30 pm and they were all getting hungry. For desert Michael and Becky shared a chocolate profiterole and Tim the coffee gourmand and the kids polished off the ice creams. On the way walking back to the site we were overtaken by an ambulance, and police cars and also a fire engine with their siren blasting away. Umm must be something bad?
As we turned in to the road that leads to the camp site there was this motley crowd of fire and ambulance and two police cars blocking the road as it would appear that two English registered cars had a collision, only minor and no one appeared hurt which was good but why they needed so much emergency services I don't really know.
It was raining again but the family all went off to the the heated indoor pool for couple of hours and Katherine went on the slides again which she enjoys very much.
In the afternoon we helped Michael and Becky research their planned trip to Kuala Lumpur next Easter and then nearly fixed it only to find the travel agent raises the price by about £ 300 after we had agreed a lower price which was nasty, as it happens the bank rejected Becks card for some reason and so they were able to escape and do some more research tomorrow. We also helped Joanne and Tim with their plans to visit Hamburg later this year by investigating the various methods and now think they will fly EasyJet from Gatwick Airport. All this research took a couple of hours when I was also wanting to follow up on some update on the St Jean De Luz house where the sitting squatter will not move out. This is taking for ever and it now about four years since all this started.
We had a quiet evening by ourselves with a light evening snack and then watched the latest edition of ‘Plank of the Week’ which was good fun as usual.
Oh well and off to bed with tomorrow being Jennifer and Katherine’s joint Birthdays
