Best Western Hotel Prince Regent Weymouth

So this is it. In a week we will start our great adventure, so we thought we would write a lil goodbye message whilst in Bournemouth.<br><br>Obviously we have nothing to write about at the moment because our lives are dull in England. But make sure you keep checking up with us ...

... and lots of families.<br><br>I did some shopping, always a good pick me up!! And took a long walk along the boardwalk.. all the beaches are quite nice around this area, they actually have sand BUT the water is freezing and no waves!! <br><br>The pier was interesting.. its quite an old structure and the pictures from the last century were amazing, everyone walking along in their suits and long ...

I had an extra long surf first thing in the morning before we headed off. Although it was small in I really enjoyed it. I had tried to convince Kim to stay for the forcasted HUGE swell in 2 days time but I knew that we had places to go and things to see and that it really was not on the cards. So it was time to head back east.<br><br ...

... 8!! We were quite a large group, about 4 families I think and their kids!<br><br>We had dinner at the park. This is no ordinary park.. its huge and the entertainment was great. They have a huge complex in the middle, with an indoor and outdoor pool, kids play area with a climbing wall and trampolines, putt putt golf, amusement room (massive) dinning room and club.. HUGE..<br><br>I had a steak but it was a bit rubbery.. lol. Say a lot rubbery ...

After a lovely couple of days with Art &amp; Thurza Comben when on Sunday the drive over from Christchurch was fine and sunny we found a Vintage Motor Cycle run from Britbits in Iford with a Wurzal lookalike group playing live and singing "Drink up thee Cider Garge", gorgeous and in beautiful weather we got to Crewkerne in time for a late lunch.<br><br>Monday Lona &amp; Thurza were dropped off in Yeovil to shop while Art ...

... clear water which I could see the tide was just pushing me back into the eddies,, at this poinyt maybee went vertical until she go now further and swung to port, this went on for some time,then I felt a tug the dinghy I now should have tied on board was being wrenched from the boat, suddenly a twang as it was lifted up and away,another yacht passd 300 metres away and was not being buffeted so much, so thats were I aimed for , and managed to get ...

... the bypass and back and I felt like I was getting the hang of this driving malarkey. We were cruising. Instead of heading back to the Nick, I drove in to a housing estate because that was what Jo requested to start her bus driving career. Strange idea, but that's what she wanted. I was wondering if she wanted to practice three point turns or reverse parking. Her second bend turned out to be an acute left hander. She also found out lesson 1 ...

... blocked by snow and we had to detour to Montigny and thence over the St Bernard Pass and down to Aolta. <br> Of that whole journey, which I will one day, if time permits relate to you, we were most impressed by Switzerland. At the time it was the most expensive place in Europe. A grapefruit priced at a Co-op shop in Basel, en route, scared us into living very frugally whilst in that country!

... grapefruit priced at a Co-op shop in Basel, en<br>route, scared us into living very frugally whilst in that country! So<br>we missed out on the wonderful transport opportunities of rail,<br>cablecars and lake ferries! <br><br>Since that visit we have always dreamed that we would one day return, hopefully more able to avail ourselves of the different forms of transport. During those years a chap ...

... the whole bunch to cover the whole flat with smoke. It seems I was the only one to give support to the idea that it was unfair that the Poole crew had to pay all their own transport expenses while the Weymouth Crew had access to company minibus for their mobility.

So since I was a bit ****** with that (I had to pay the train the ...
