A Few Holiday Snaps

Here are a few holiday snaps of us in Mauritius. We've been back over a week now and my tan is already fading fast but will have great memories. The weather was hot, hot, hot. 35+ in the second week, like walking on hot coals. Day 6, we were upgraded to the only Private Villa with own pool, this is where Bjorn Borg stayed last year. It was a gift from the management. The last photo is of my family standing outside our own private front door. Christmas eve was just like last year, excellent food and again the live choir sang around the swimming pool. New Years was brilliant. The hotel set off fireworks from the sea. 2 massive things had been floating in the bay a few days previous but when they were lit on the night, it was stunning. Some of the biggest fireworks I've ever seen and with all the other fireworks going off around the bay, the sky was filled. A sight I'll never forget. The 1st piccie is of me, please dont laugh, but I think he was a saucy santa! Last year he arrived on the beach by waterski, this year, he paraglided in, something you dont see often (lol). Its only day 4 so not much of a tan then. The second photo is of the children down on the beach, getting ready to let a balloon go on christmas day, amazing sight and the sky was filled. Had the best of holidays, loved every minute of it and hope to return again on day. It took over 19hours door to door with a 12 1/2hr flight coming home and when we arrived at Heathrow we were welcomed by a temperature of -5 degrees's! Certainly not what we were used to. Anyway, hope I've not bored you to much, so nice to get back to my blogging and crafting. Will have something to show later no doubt.
