Half term fun


Bean has a half term break next week, so we have an opportunity to go have some fun a little further away from home. We will be spending four days in South East England in the county of Kent. Some of the places we will be going are Canterbury and Dover. There are many historic places, impressive castles and amazing coastlines in South East England. We will also be checking out Chartwell in Westerham. Chartwell was the home that Winston Churchill lived in from 1924 until the end of his life. The home has remained protected and unchanged thanks to the National Trust. My husband is very excited about seeing it. I have attached a picture of Canterbury and of the White Cliffs of Dover. We are very excited to get a few days away and the girls are excited that there is a swimming pool in our hotel. It is the little things in life, right? We will also be going to London again for a few days. We definitely don't let any grass grow under our feet at every school break and weekend! There is so much to see in England and we have not even started exploring the surrounding countries yet.
