portugal






portugal was super weather was lovely and warm a few mishaps, when we arrived at the hotel, they didnt have our reservation and on the second day the ceiling came down in the bathroom on my friend karens head (it sounds alot worse than it was, it was a panel, but it did klonk her one) she was putting her towel over the shower curtain pole to dry and she knocked the panel down, i was through in the room with my other friend eva we just heard an almighty bang and a 'AAAAAARRRRRRRGGGHHH' i thought she had fell in the bath, she was just stood there trying to hold the ceiling panel up, i ran back through and phoned reception, that was a laugh trying to explain to the receptionist that the ceiling had fell down, all i got was 'pardon, the ceiling it fall down' at this point i was laughing alot also which made it harder to understand me, ha ha!! karens head was fine though we had to move rooms to a horrible damp smelling one, alas it was only for one night. the weather was good had a few drinks,food would've been fantastic if i ate meat or fish, the vegetarian tomato pasta was cooked in fish sauce, uuuuurrrgggghhhh!!!!! and some lovely buildings too(would be nice to buy one and open a wine bar, have to win the lottery first!)

devon

well i cant believe ive not wrote on my blog for this long, devon was lovely, weather was gorgeous, me and john where swimming in the sea at 7pm (its not normaly that warm in britain at all)
dad got john drunk on cider(although he wasnt forced) he was flat out for 7 hours and missed his pizza, woke up at 2am and didnt know where he was, ha ha very amusing!!!
found this top pub a little hippy place called The Pigs Nose with random baskets of wool so you can knit a line or two and a cozy log fire, food was great and the cider was lovely.
went on a steam train and visited a butterfly farm, john and dad played golf a few times and me and mum went shopping.
there was no cheese and onion fair, most dissapointed as myself and mum went looking for it, we finally found a tourist information place and we were told it didnt take off, was quite looking foward to it as it sounded so bizzar!
