Back!

I had a great time in Ireland with my family last week. We stayed in a place called Swords which was just on the outskirts of Dublin.

It's been years since we had a proper family holiday abroad and what with Ellen and I being 18, it's probably going to be one of the last all together so it was pretty special.

I had a lot of fun taking photos! We were out and about in some really beautiful places so I took quite a lot. I'm hoping to be able to get them all printed out and maybe make a collage out of them or something. I have the idea of cutting them out in a way so that they make up the shape of Ireland. The pictures I've chosen are just a few of the photos which sum up the fun we had! I got the little rubber duck underneath to remember that. I call him Paddy!!

Having never been to Ireland before, I was actually quite surprised at how different everything felt. Even though we weren't that far away from where we live, everything felt really european especially the town in which we stayed. That was nice though because it made us feel that we were truely away. As lovely as Cumbria is, it's always nice to look at different scenery.

Most of the time the weather was great which was a bonus. I even got rid of my vampire look by getting a tan!!

Jenna also had a good holiday. She went back to the breeders to stay and when I came to pick her up, she looked like she had put on a fair bit of holiday fat! But she had needed to be wormed so when they kindly did that for me, she put on weight really quickly. But she had a blast there. She looked so happy when I saw her again and that made me feel better about leaving her.

So everyone has had a great week!
