We decided last month to bring the grandkids here so whilst Mike was setting the caravan up, I started playing with Josh & Sophia. We'd brought Josh's bike as being on very slightly gentle slope, it was an ideal place for Josh to learn. The grass was wet in places but he was just happy running around burning off his excess energy.
This was Josh's 4th time away in the caravan but Sophia's first. We didn't know how they'd settle down in the evening but it was all fine.
We went up to the pub for a quick meal and they were extremely well-behaved.
A quick shower and into bed for a story or 2 or 3 then it was my go. It's Josh's first go at sleeping in a bunk bed but he was ok with it.
Sophia was really happy with her bed and it took her a while to settle down. Her curtain could be seen twitching quite often and little eyes peering out!
Saturday's weather was damp & overcast and we tried driving around to escape it without much success. We gave the village events a miss as it was still chucking it down and didn't want to be trying to dry clothes in the caravan. So it was up to the supermarket, grab a few pizzas and veg out in front of Bagpuss on the laptop! Our favourite episode was the Ballet Shoe. It was hilarious!! It's too good for kids. :)
Sunday was a total surprise, the weather was lovely. The owner, Nigel suggested leaving the caravan where it was, enjoy the day with the kids and come back later in the day to pick up the caravan! It was a lovely gesture from him so we took his offer and went to Bridport. Crab fishing, eating ice-creams and a paddle in the sea were all done.
Sophia couldn't keep her eyes open on the way home!!!
