i actually really enjoyed it and could see us doing it a lot more in future.

first 3 nights at siblu in normandy were pretty adverage. i would not recommend the site anyone. two nights there would have been plenty.

next 4 nights were spent at des 4 vents near disney. this campsite was great, nice (cold) pool and the staff were really helpfull.

we forgot to buy gas for our stove before going so had to live of take aways most of the week

only disaster was we were caught in a terrible thunder storm the morning we left, dh was taking the tent down in really heavy rain with thunder and lightening crashing around him while i huddled in the car with two terrified little girls.

glad to be home now though, i never missed the t.v or comp one bit but i was really needing my own bathroom back.

thak you

i did get a bit homesick the first night and thought what on earth have i let myself in for but i can see why people do really love it now.

felt a bit sorry for the family next to us at the second site though, they had the most perfectly behaved two boys who were happy to play quietly all the time but had my rowdy hyper mob on one side and on the other side was a family with a little baby who never stopped crying.
