Easter in Ireland - Dublin

We were so lucky with the weather at Grannie' Mo's (our mum's mummy).  She lives beside the sea in Dublin - Ireland.

Picnic with mum beside Grannie's house.

Playing in Grannie Mo's garden

Cousins - Jessica and David..

.. and uncle John teaching Troy to drive.

The Volcano trail after the explosion in the sky Because of the Volcano, we had to stay in Ireland longer than we'd planned ...

I'm 5 ....so we missed being with dad for Troy's birthday. We had a mini dinner and got the boat back to England a few days later ..

The Grandfather Clock at Mo's.

We had a great time in Dublin .. and in time .. will be back. Thanks Mo' xxx

Easter in Ireland - Galway.

One of our favourite people to visit is Claire and her family in Galway. Ireland.  There's so much to do.  It's all outside stuff too.  (But there's the worlds most massive box of lego for days you want to be lazy.)

There are lots of castles in Galway	Can you believe that this is what the toilet was like in the olden days.  Just a hole into the ground.
At Claire's we went riding.  Hayley	.. and then Troy.
They have lots of sheep there.  They all look like Shaun and Timmy	There are some unexpected creatures too.
We had lots of yummy food	And a cool place to stay
There was places where there were no people or houses for miles and miles....	.. and miles

Troy running with the Shauns! (movie)

JuiJitsu in the park

Not every day has something big happening.  A regular day was often just going to the park with Mum and Dad.  On this day we got to do some Jiu Jitsu with Dad. Hanging out can sometimes be the best times.

Sun & Ski in Spain!

In Andalucia you can be by the sea one minute and then in the snow.  Hayley was 4 1/2 and Troy nearly 3 when we tried it out.  Starting off with Dad's birthday in Tarifa, we then got into our car and drove just 3 hours, arriving to the mountains above the clouds.
 

Grannie Sam made dad's cake - mum took it all the way to Spain

View from our Hotel

Hayley did classes and zoomed down the slope, Troy however refused to wear sunglasses so he wasn't allowed to be in the class.  He didn't mind, he just played in the melting snow!

Troy puddling around !

Mum and Dad skied every mountain.  It was really melty, but they had machines to top it up.  Mum skis and Dad snowboards.  Me and Troy ski.  Snowboard next.

Dad checking out the view.  You could see all the way to the ocean from up top.

We wanted to see the view so went in the cable car.

Skiing over, it was time to go to the sea side!

On the way back to Tarifa we stopped at a shopping centre and took a break.

Troy

Hayley

In the same day we were in the snow and on the beach!

Windy ,,,  but still nice and sunny.

Hayley and Dad take a special walk along the Paseo

And then it was Easter ............  back to London for Troy's birthday  :)

Grenada

One of the best holidays we went on was to Grenada.  Grenada is an island in the Caribbean.

Grenada is near Venezuela

This is the view at the north of the Island

This is the capital St. Georges

This is just outside our bedroom ...

.... where we climbed the coconut trees.

My Great Grannie Bell's house in the hills

Great Grannie Bell is Daddy's Grannie. She's 95!

We collected Coconuts for Breakfast

A lady with a macheté choped them open for us

mmmmm!
