We have been on holiday!!!

Yes we have been on holiday! It was lovely, so relaxing to be away form home. No washing to do (saved that for the 8 load marathon today), no hoovering!! A proper rest for us hard working mamas and a chance to spend some quailty time as a family.

We travelled to POOLE in Dorset and stayed on a lovely Haven site called Rockley park. The journey was interesting, too long for my smallest baby but worth it. The van we stayed in was lovely, the site was very good and well kept. Indoor and out door pool, entertainment and even a secret little beach. And there is so much to do in Dorset isnt there? Very pretty.

So here are a few photos....

OFF WE GO!


 Rory the tiger!!
 Bournemouth oceanarium



 Amazing day at the Swannery in Abbotsbury. My camera lost battery at this point, which was a shame as i could have taken hundreds of photos. The girls and i even got to feed them!!
And the highlight of Emilys holiday!! Peppa pig world in Paultons theme park.

The whole day was like this - "look mummy!" we had to physically force her to stop and eat and drink!














 We spent the whole day in peppa pig world and left when the park was closing! We didnt even see the rest of the theme park and i have to say even as adults we were both  blown away by the quality and thought put into the place. Really amazing.


 A windy day on a beach near our caravan

 Our last day was sent on a steam train. Oh how i love steam trains! i dont think you can have a holiday with out a trip on a steam train! We started at Norton and the train took us to Corfe Castle and the back on to Swanage



A very rare photo of us all!!




 Cream tea in Corfe Castle tea rooms - mmmm






A really lovely holiday and one i hope they will always remember

Lovely, we love it around Dorset and Corfe Castle is a great place to explore isn't it. Aiming to pop down in the Summer (not too far from us).
Looks like the girls enjoyed Paultons Park, we've still never ventured there despite it being quite close by.

Glad you all enjoyed your holiday xxx

Gorgeous pics ... not sure how I missed these when I was looking on here the other day! Peppa Pig World looks like every little girl's dream come true! I especially love the Sea-Gull picture. :-)
