En France

Spent an enjoyable holiday in Britanny with the family.

One high point was some horse riding on the coast. Daniela even managed a gallop across the beach.

family Photos from Greece

You can see the latest photos of our holiday in Greece

We had a fantastic holiday on the island of Paros for one week and then on to Naxos for a second week. Highlights include the horse riding on Paros and the trip to the village of Halkia on the island of Naxos.

Grecian Earned

We are taking a very much deserved holiday on Paros. Photos coming soonish.

Hot here. But with the sea just a splash away - this is not a problem.

Big Fat Greek Holiday

No pictures yet ‘cos we can’t upload from the camera, but here is a description: Hot, blue, relaxing! In the sea every day, wandering the port restaraunts by night. The food is surprisingly less fish more meat, but we are learning that the Greek salad is the best value. We are on Paros and I have just finished reading Fionnuala Brennan’s On a Greek Island: A Personal Experience - an account of her and her family’s time in 1978 when they lived on the island (and renovated a house). The island has changed and become a very busy tourist resort. The population increases by 80% in the summer. OK. but we are still enjoying it! I am posting this from a car hire company on the dockside. If we can find a more modern computer with a USB post, I might be able to post some photos.

Ear Piercing

On a recent visit to France, the girls insisted on getting their ears pierced. It looked painful to me! More photos of the trip to France over here
