Merryn in France


We had a great holiday on the West Coast of France, ahead of our move to Oslo. Merryn really enjoyed spending a day in Angouleme, watching a stage of the Tour de France, as well as winning the Maillot Jeune! Here he is resting after an epic 10k bike ride to watch the end of the stage.

James climbs a Volcano!

Well, OK, it was Roughtor on Bodmin Moor actually, but it LOOKED like a Volcano so that's what we decided to call it! We had some great weather (at last) so we went for a picnic at Roughtor.

While James' Mummy had a little sleep in a Bronze Age round house, James, Charlotte and their friend (along with the ever-energetic Bilbo the Dog) climbed to the top of the Tor.

We made it to the top!




James found a tunnel!


Bilbo enjoyed the view too!
