Isle of Wight - our holiday at the beach


mum and zara contemplating how big the world is




finally somewhere for us to eat, no one would serve meals before 6:30pm so we were starting to think we were going to have to starve on the island


the old thatch village in shanklin pulled through for us and we had a lovely dinner of fish and chips


we visited "the needles which are on the south west point of the island, to get down to the beach you have to take the chair lift, its a bit hairy and they didn't want to let Zara go down, you have to be able to walk to use the chairlift and i think they thought mum and dad were lying when they said she could walk






i certainly made sure we got our moneys worth in the geriatric hotel we stayed in, the carpet may have left something to be desired, and the matre de in the restuarant had a lot to answer for but the swimming pool was a hit, i spent nearly 4 hours in total in the swimming pool, now i just have to talk ma and pa into building a swimming pool at home!
