This post will have to do for yesterday and today,
I hope you are not dead.
Yesterday we actually went camping, the first time we've been camping as a family,
Well we actually went to say happy birthday to dad's uncle who turned 73.
well, we got there and we checked in fine, we managed to find our site, but there was a nice enclosed and reasonably empty space next to us, so we went and asked for it and we managed to get it, that was great, except that the stuff that enclosed it was the Dutch equivalent of a stinging nettle! But we survived that and managed to get the tent up, (there will be a video) and it only took us 3 hours! The weather was fine while we set the tent up, with no sign of the forecasted "Showers", then we set up the mattress's and went and got pizza for dinner, we ordered a "four cheese" pizza, but unfortunately one of the four cheese's was "Smelly Blue Cheese" and trust me, it smelt! Then Beth and dad went to the beach, and came right back with reports of it being "Haunted", just about 15 seconds before they got back, it started raining! And it rained, and rained, and rained, it rained all night and into the morning, were luckily, it stopped, it had also been very windy so some of the peg's had come out, in fact, because we had both a water-proof floor and a tarp underneath, it turned itself into a sort of water-bed! But we managed to sort of pack it up (mostly into garbage bag's) so we could take it home to dry.
Oh well, that was our first, (hopefully our worst) camping trip in Europe.
Matt the frog.
