Holiday to Guissan!

Just had a lovely holiday on the Med near Narbonne, well a few days in some sun which the kids enjoyed a lot, we stayed in Guissan in a friends caravan just next to the beach, and a pool on site which was lovely too. Not too much sun unfortunately but a few great days out including the African Zoo in Siegan, where we saw Giraffe's, Lions, Elephants, Zebra's and a few cheeky monkeys. The kids loved it, and it is well worth a visit if your ever in the area, as the animals have a huge space to roam in and it was a great set up, which looks like it will be expanding next year again. Lots of local lovely food, eating out most of the time. The kids really enjoyed staying in a caravan, which Jas would now like in her garden for herself. Really.....

PIGGY WIGGY'S

The piggy wiggys have arrived, staying at our friends in Milhas, about 10 mins away, They are 30 kilos already and will be with us for about a year. Black Gascon pigs, which are a local breed. Ours has been named by Jasmine and is called Beauty! Here's to next xmas and a home reared ham!

Thom's first summit!

At the weekend Thom completed his first summit in the Pyrenee;s It was a glorious day, a hard walk up the mountain, which Jasmine did all on her own, mummy helped her on the way down. A reward of lunch at the cafe at the bottom of the mountain. Perfect day!

Back to school for Jasmine

Back to school for Jasmine today, it's all change as there is a new Maitress for her, and the school has been split into 2 classes now. Jasmine in the Maternelle class of 16 children.

We managed a visit to the great Pyrenees Ho Parc, where we enjoyed a morning of relaxed sunshine and entertained children you cant ask for more than that! So grown ups had coffee and chocolate, and decided we could make this a weekly event for Sunday mornings!
