Sunday 8th July

Holidays...good times

It's been a long time and so much has happened since my last blog entry. I've been on my second summer holiday to France and moved house. There's been a lot of upheaval meaning I've become even more attached to Lambo, my favourite cuddly toy. I'm happy to chat to anyone now, and give me a cracker, I'll do you a special dance, in fact, I'll probably just ask you for a snack whoever you are. Anyway, here are the picture and video highlights...

Cracker dance on the ferry

At Emma, Lily Rose and Ben's place in Brittany

Seriously, I've never had so much fun as on their trampoline

Boing!

Bonk!

Mummy, Helen, watch me!

And they had a swing (we have one now at our new home in Tring!)

Daddy, will it be this warm and sunny the whole holiday? (answer = NO!)

Emma's dad make me laugh on the trampoline

Arriving at our holiday gite, the first thing we had to do was go out and get pizza

Where's this gite, I'm kn@ckered!

Straight to the beach first evening....looking a bit cloudy..

On the waterfront at Le Croisic with Lambo

Climbing out of the giant shell at the Oceanarium

More climbing - goodness knows what this was

Going for a walk/fall in the nearby forest
Easy Lambo, I'll take care of you

Enjoying a chocolate milk in a square in nearby Pornichet

Playing on the slide with Lambo in the garden in our gite

At least there were a few sunny days - the beaches were lovely

Oh well, on with the rain macs - taking shelter in a church in Pornic

My first ever galette - 5/10

Running across the bridge in Pornichet with Lambo and Rosita

How much longer in there, daddy?

Any more sunshine?


Lunch on the terrace at our gite

Posing in windows at Le Croisic
More daft dancing at Le Croisic




Down the beach at Ste Margarite - windy as heck

A lion getting a little too close to us in the safari park (Nadia's birthday)

Getting friendly with the goats on a break at the children's farm at the safari park

Watching the dolphin show

The oldies have been trying to potty train me - I usually find something else to do

Strawberry picking!

That looks like a good one, Lambo!

Roaming around the dog and cat show

One of many ice cream stops (here in La Baule)

Bad weather means swimming baths - is it safe to come out?!

You could hear me say frequently 'I want to do it by myself'! Hated getting changed afterwards - drove mummy and daddy mad

Back to our favourite place - Le Croisic



At the castle in Nantes

Riding on top of the mechanical elephant (see my sister's blog)

A walk in the countryside

Last day at the beach

So despite the weather we had a lovely time. France has put me off milk forever though - I tried some of that UHT stuff and have refused to drink it every since....and that's coming from someone who necked it morning, noon and night.


I love our new home, especially the pink bedroom. I have settled in nicely sharing a room with my sis.


Usually found with a slice of brioche in my hand/mouth

We've been enjoying the local events, including Tring carnival...

Drumming in the jazz tent

...and getting more mileage out of my 'cracker dance'

See you soon, people!
