First night with both kids in the TD
I picked my son up from school and we were off.
Got to the site approx 3.45pm
We had sausages and bread for dinner and I made the kids popcorn in the DO over carcoal.
Kids slept well, it got to 8 dec C so was cosy at night
Breakfast was simple, bacon and pancakes
Took the kids to see the animal park and the beach
Positives all round
