Well, just when I thought the best vacation of the year would be skiing, along comes our trip to Cornwall. The three kids and I set off with my mom, Grammy Lee, and we had no idea what to expect. I have to admit, the day of arrival was a rocky beginning. The baby didn't want to fall asleep and after a long drive I was tired and hungry. But after we got into a routine it was really smooth sailing. Cornwall was breathtakingly beautiful, even with colder weather than we would have liked. It wasn't great for beach play as the wind was blowing and it was in the mid 50s, but there were lots of other great places to explore. We had so much fun we decided to stay an extra night! It was a perfect family vacation and the Sands Resort outside of Newquay was first rate.
Enjoy the pictures...

This place was AMAZING! I would recommend everyone in London should try to make a trip out to Cornwall to see it. It is a really inspiring facility established ten years ago to promote green living, increased knowledge about nature and responsible use of resources.
