Another one for the bucket list, but at some cost this time.
Being as foolish as ever we did a one day trip to Paris. Drive from home to Paris, enjoy a day at the Parc and return in just over 24 hours. We’d done Alton Towers before but the ferry threw in a whole new dimension. Especially because we didn’t have the boys when we last did something so daft.

But all things considered I’m glad we did it.

Wow was it cold, it felt colder than Lapland on December. Snow on the ground and a biting wind caused some very chilled bodies. But we kept a smile regardless.

A selection of the fun.

Another mad adventure for the Coomber-Webbs.

OK, this is probably the craziest thing we’ve ever done.

Start at 9pm – leave Thetford for Dover.

Little run down to the south coast to catch the ferry. Got there in time for the midnight ferry to France.

The temperature was cold and didn’t get much sleep.

In France for 3am then three run to Paris. A approx 3hrs drive, bit stopped for a couple of rest breaks and sleep. Pulled into the park at 8am.

No time for sleep too excited, so straight into the park for some fun.

Had a great time bit out was very cold and windy, the queues were long and the boys got bored easily.

We did have lots of fun though.

Back in the car a 7pm for the 11pm ferry. Really getting tired by now, so at around 10.00pm pulled in for 15mins sleep and diesel. Unfortunately over slept. Got 30 mins instead of 15 mins, so late.

Pulled into the terminal to watch the doors closing. Oh well, got the next one, 12.45am ferry to England.

Got in UK and then to the hotel for some sleep. 3am got to bed. So needed top get some real sleep.

A great day away, but next time I’m staying over in France.

Not that should have really, but sister and mum get more forgiveness than I would.

Happy Birthday
