Home time. Nice straightforward flights and home by 7pm.

We had a lovely holiday but it is good to be home.

Day 94

4 April 2018

It has been the most beautiful day. Warm and sunny and we went down to a gorgeous beach.

Set under tall cliffs the sea was a little too rough, and too cold, to go in but we had a lovely couple of hours there.

There was a groups of lads down there who were flying a drone. The guy flying it was really good and he was totally on control of it. I wonder what they were making a film for.

Day 93

Cliff walkToday we had a lovely walk along the boardwalk towards Carvoeiro. There was a part of the walk where it was possible to climb down some rough-hewn steps right onto the edge of the cliff and then further down towards the sea.

I was absolutely bricking it. I was terrified I was going to fall in and The Little Miss wasn’t actually being co-operative at the time.

In the end we made our way up to the boardwalk quite happily and had a lovely walk there… on the way back though The Little Miss through a massive wobbler and screamed all the way back. Peace shattered.

Day 90

Silves Castle

Today we had a lovey trip out to the castle in Silves. It was a really impressive place and the views across the landscape were lovely. What was really interesting was that we were high enough up to see all the stork nests on top of the chimneys and the corners of the buildings. Fab.

A year in pictures – Day 246

Nearly there

Today we head home on the boat.

We have had a wonderful holiday. Seen loads of lovely people, stayed in some beautiful places and generally relaxed and enjoyed our time.

Best of all was spending time with this wonderful bunch. We are so fortunate.

A year in pictures – Day 245

Time to Go

We packed up and left today and headed to Poole via Monkey World. I have no decent pictures of this day out but the kids had a brilliant time.

We are now in a Premier Inn bellowing at the children to ‘GO TO SLEEP!!!’

What fun.

The picture is of the stately home that we were staying next to. It was rather run down in places but was generally lovely.

A year in pictures – Day 244

Bournemouth Air ShowWe had a long but brilliant day out at Bournemouth Airshow.

We got the train there from Dorchester and The Little Mister incessantly talked at this poor fella who was sat at a table with us.

The airshow was massive and heaving but the kids had a great time, other than The Little Miss being scared witless every time the army started up their tank for a play.

We also saw the Red Arrows who were brilliant as ever. We got home late but had a fabulous time.

Peaceful Cottage

When you book an Airbnb it is always a bit hit and miss as to whether you get a nice property or not. This one is absolutely gorgeous. Tasteful and beautiful with everything we could possibly want. Perfect.

A pool to ourself

Our next stop in our holiday destination is a lovely little cottage in the grounds of a stately home between Dorchester and Yeovil. Greeted by the lady of the house and her three rather lovely dogs the kids are delighted that there is a walled swimming pool
