Default Yay! We are having a holiday!

Hello All!

After buying a tent this week we are actually going away for a week's holiday!!

One of our friends parents own a caravan park in Norfolk, & they have very kindly let us have a caravan free of charge for a week as it is the week before the 2 week spring break! so we will be up there for Jake's 4th Birthday!!

Just need to find some fun things to do now, inside & outside depending on weather!

Can't wait, I'm so excited!!!!

Nessa. xxx

That's excellent news Nessa. I loved caravan holidays as a child and my own kids in turn have loved them.

I can honestly say I don't ever remember being bored on any one of ours. It was so exciting as a child to be going somewhere different and staying in a caravan. Me and my sister went a lot with my grandparents and we'd always pack a little toy suitcase with some of our favourite toys so we had something to play with inside if it rained. I went on to do the same with my kids and it never cost a lot to enjoy those holidays.

Is it near a beach?

There are plenty of kid friendly places in Norfolk, you will have a great holiday even if the weather is the usual British dampness.

I know where it is. I think you may be near Dawn if shes still out that way. Very close to the house we almost bought. Aldeburgh just down the coast is very nice

It's not only a caravan! It's a holiday and that in my eyes is the same no matter where you stay be it a tent in a field or all inclusive lap of luxury somewhere. A holiday is a holiday no matter where it is You don't have to go abroad to have a real holiday especially where kids happy with a beach are concerned
