Share your hilarious family holiday stories with Drac from Hotel Transylvania 3 - £300 voucher to be won

[DracLordOfDarkness]

Hello, it’s me, Drac, again! Thank you for all of your wonderful tips to help me survive my family vacation on the world’s first ever cruise for monsters. Yes, yes a cruise is just a hotel on water! I know we might as well have stayed at home at Hotel Transylvania, but my little ghoul Mavis insisted I need a vacation. I’ve heard that lots of people, especially humans, like to go on family holidays and I would love to hear about them and any funny stories you have.

My most hilarious moment on my monster cruise holiday was on the plane over. I know it’s ridiculous because vampires can fly but apparently I need to relax. We flew with the infamously dangerous Gremlin Air who have truly excellent customer service on board as you can see below . PM me if you’d like their details - they’re truly fangtastic.

So what hilarious family holiday stories do you have? Did someone get really bad moon-tan lines? Perhaps you tricked someone into eating a bucket of garlic? Did you go on a cruise and someone accidentally dropped their suitcase or phone overboard? Or the whole family take part in Karaoke? I love Karaoke and have some spooktacular moves to go with my singing!

Whatever your funny family holiday stories are, please share them with me and you will be entered into our Hotel Transylvania 3 prize draw to win a £300 voucher of your choice. Maybe you could use the vouchers for your own luxury monster cruise vacation?

Good luck!

Drac

Our car broke down actually in eurotunnel. The staff were lovely - helped us push off and one of their engineers came and took a look and got us going again - at least to make it to the nearest garage

We have had lots of small funny moments. Today we sat on the beach an dd2 went and sat in the middle of another family thinking it was us, the other family started to giggle and look at us, when dd realised her face was a picture!

I'm reaching back to my own childhood here, but a cautionary tale for any parent travelling with youngsters is to learn from my dad's experience of going abroad to SPain for the first overseas family holiday with three kids aged 12, 11 and 6.

God knows why, but each of the boys (oldest and youngest - I'm middle) were bought a replica cap gun as a present whilst we were away. The youngest one got a pirate gun. And the eldest received a Magnum. At the end of the trip, both were told to pack all their toys into their cases.

On arrival at the airport all was going well until we got to security. As my dad was going through, lights started flashing and armed guards appeared from nowhere, pushed hi to the floor, pinned him down on the ground, and pointed their weapons at him.

We were shocked.

He was taken away and we spent the next 3 hours waiting to find out what had happened and to be reassured that he would be ok.

Turns out that my elder brother had not packed his gun away in time and had slipped it into my dad's rucksack just before we left the holiday camp. Security just saw a guy with a magnum (metal, very convincing) in his rucksack.

He was eventually reunited with us and we were able to get home unscathed, if a little later than planned.

How we laughed about it afterwards!! ;)

In France last year my son assured us that he had ‘got this’ when we needed tickets at the Metro. He said his French was pretty good and he could get us some tickets. He marched up to the desk and practically yelled ‘WE NEED 5 TICKETS’ The woman had no idea what he was on about so he said it again but louder and slower! DH and I were both pissing ourselves and cringing!
