Holiday to Spain!

Simon, Thomas and I have finally had a holiday....horray!! We organised it at the last minute and were able to hire a lovely villa in Spain, is had three good sized bedrooms, two bathrooms, a good sized lounge/diner and kitchen. We flew into Alicante and it was about a 40 minute drive to the villa. thomas was very good on the flight out as he slept on me for just over an hour and then was happy to walk to the back of the plane to see the "baby". There were three very large supermarkets near to us (even an Iceland!) so we could get everything we needed - even Thomas's soya milk and dairy free marg! We went to the beach everyday so that Thomas could use his "shovel" and "bucket" and "dig" and then go in the (rather cold) "wataar" - sea. He just loved to dig a big hole in the sand and then we'd fill it up with water and then he'd sit beside it with his feet in! Only trouble was the water kept draining away very quickly so either Simon or I would be making constant trips to the sea to get more water!!! As you can imagine we didn't sit in the sun at all but we didn't mind one bit! We all caught the sun a little bit but we really needed to get away and relax as much as we could before Simon started his new job on the 27th.

Here are some pictures of our first family holiday...



What a cool dude he is with his hat and shades on!
