Well, I'm back from a week at Watermouth Castle. And what a great week it was! Fantastic place for the kids and we had sun most of the time (apart from the thunder & lightening and huge downpour on Thursday afternoon!)
So why ear gobbles and ice creams?
Well, the 6 apartments at the Castle had use of an indoor heated pool which we certainly used - twice a day! It opened at 7:30am and closed at 9pm and generally used it at 7:30am and mid afternoon.
Samuel has swimming lessons at the moment and keeps asking for some 'ear gobbles' as some of the kids use them. He actually means eye goggles....
And you can't go on holiday without having ice cream every day. Jacob stuck to chocolate flavour every day (what a surprise!) but Samuel was quite adventurous and had a daily change - vanilla, strawberry, chocolate and mint choc chip (my favourite!)
Samuel looked particularly fetching after his chocolate ice cream - he was impressed when I told him he looked like a pirate!
More pics to come over the next week of our holiday and of where we visited. Just don't want to do too much too soon!!
glad you had a great time- those photos will have to be turned into scrapbook pages
