29th June 2014, Something Exciting is about to happen

She knows that something exciting is happening today, that we are awake early for a reason, but she doesn't know what yet.

And now she knows!  Having managed not to notice all the signs on the motorway, and not even realised where we were when I look a wrong turning and ended up at the station right at the entrance to the Parc!

  Her Royal Highness the Princess Cinderella about to enter the Magic Kingdom.  It is true!  If you take your little girl to Disneyland dressed as a Disney Princess, all the staff treat them as though they are real princesses, complete with curtsies and bows, and addressing them as "Your Highness" and "Your Grace".  Chloe was told what an honour it was to have her visiting that day.

Time for a cuppa!

Will the sword rise from the stone for this Princess?

The Parade was a joy to behold and the participants were delighted to meet the real Cinderella.

Sadly all good things come to an end, and off we went, tired but happy, eagerly looking forward to the next leg of our adventure.

28th June 2015 - Buffalo Grill, let the food shots begin!

After our Tunnel crossing we found a cheap motel on the outskirts of Boulogne sur Mer, complete with Buffalo Grill.

The children enjoyed a mixed dessert platter and Chloe learned some new words "Barbe a Papa" (candy floss).

 My choice, as ever, was a lovely cheese platter...

...followed by coffee and Armagnac.  The perfect start to our French adventures.

26th June 2015 - all Set For Adventure

We are about to set off on our summer adventure, using Chloe's campervan as a camper for the first time ever.  As you can see it is not a formal conversion as such, rather a collection of IKEA furniture strategically placed to provide accommodation.
