This year Steve and I plus the kids (including Ally) joined them. We finally persuaded my Dad to ditch the Ferries and try the Eurotunnel - thankfully it wasn't jinxed and I think they found it ok.We did some shopping in Cite of Europe and had a lovely spot of lunch in one of the restaurants there. There was lots of space for the kids to run about in whilst they were waiting to be fed and plenty of stairs to chase Ben up and down!
After our shopping expeditions we checked into our hotel which is a lovely little place not too far from the port which has a wonderful restaurant attached.
The kids behaved themselves (for the most part) and we all enjoyed a nice meal. I'd like to say that Nanna liked the birthday present we bought but unfortunately it hasn't actually arrived yet! Hopefully it'll be here by Tuesday and I'll let you know.
We left fairly early this morning - the kids love the tunnel and Amy treated it like her own personal dance studio - singing High School Musical the whole way home.
We were back home by 11am and immediately set to work getting the kids to tidy up the house and after they had finished they made themselves a well deserved cup of tea.
