Spring is just around the corner and that can only mean one thing – time to book my Summer holiday. We tend to alternate our holidays between either Spain or Florida.
Last year we all enjoyed Florida, so that means that this year we are back to Spain. They are 2 very different breaks. Florida is action packed days spent at the theme parks, whereas Spain is a fortnight spent lazing around a pool and then strolling out in the evening to the local restaurants.
This year is going to be strange as it will be the first time my son hasn’t come on holiday with us. He has decided to go back to Florida with his girlfriend!
We are all going to miss him, in particular my teenage daughter. In previous holidays it wouldn’t be unusual for the pair of them to spend the entire day messing about in the swimming pool. We always take with us the rubber rings, lilos and splat balls. Last time I took some water bombs with us and I will admit that we had great fun using them.
This year I suppose my husband and I are going to have to try and keep our daughter entertained. Saying that though I can’t see it being a major problem because my husband turns into the biggest kid of all on holiday!!
Much as I love messing about around the pool, the evenings are the time I love the most. It gives me a good reason to glam up and wear all the new clothes I have bought for summer.
Usually there are so many restaurants to choose from that we have the normal arguments about who wants to eat what and end up wandering around for ages trying to decide.
Personally speaking give me a Comida Mexicana restaurant (Mexican to you and I). My husband loves his steaks, so he is pretty well catered for at any restaurant. My daughter loves her pizza, but never tries anything other than Margarita!!
The last time we visited Spain we even took advantage of a food delivery service on offer at one of the local Spanish restaurants. Food delivery in Spanish is known as Comida a domicilio, so watch out for that next time you are on holiday.
