Tomorrow we set off for the delightful Lands End. Well, to be honest I'm not entirely sure that it is delightful as the last time I went there I was about 5 years old. When planning our holiday we had to take into account the little cherub (who is 5 months old now). A trip to the continent was initially the favourite but once we sat down to organise it we found a few limiting factors namely,the inflated cost of staying in a hotel once you admit to having an ankle biter in your entourage, the fact that every destination we investigated was chav infested and somewhere we would usually avoid going, Air travel, because we simply do not know how she will react to it and don't want to spend the entire time worrying about the return flight if the outward one was taxin, the heat of potential Mediterranean resort, and an irrational fear of foreign baby snatchers.Taking these factors into account we decided to stay in blighty. My earliest memory of holidaying is of Lands End and I decided that it would be a nice way of inducting the daughter into the wonderful world of travel. We also know that she settles down nicely on car journeys and felt that this was also another plus point to staying domestic.
I will post a few piccies on my return.
