to be stupidly excited that we have booked our first family holiday?

[FunnysInTheGarden]

Going to Pointe St Gilles in Brittany with 2yo DS2 and 6yo DS1. Swore we would never go away again before DS2 was at least 4 due to an awful villa holiday in Mallorca when DS1 was 2. Anyway have booked as DS1 was dying to have a holiday, so despite the fact it will rain etc, am really really looking forward to it.

Fab-was looking at holidays myself today-hope you have a lovely time :)

Enjoy :-)

Sounds great. But what on earth happened in the villa holiday thta made you swear off holidays for 4 years?!

Good for you! Hope you have a lovely time.

Snap! I'm very excited as we've just booked our first proper holiday abroad!!! Crete!!! Very Very excited... kids just like the idea of a pool and plane ride!!

Same here! First holiday on a plane for me since 1988. I've spent three years saving and booked our first holiday abroad to Majorca in October school holiday. I'm going to lose a ton of weight for it.

YIPEEEEEEEEEE :)

took my first flight in 15 years Dec 2011 with 3 kids eldest 13 who had never flown. due to work (self employed) it was our first hols away as a family. there were niggles with things but don't let anything spoil it. when we came back a friend said "only another 5 years and family hols will be a thing of the past so make the most of it" i cried - how feeble - so have fun!

I worked there as a Eurocamp Kids' Courier when I was 19!!

Sans Souci restaurant on the sea front is amazing and literally translates to "no worries". It might not still be there...
