This year, we took our first trip abroad as a family. Carol and I have been to foreign parts together, but this was the first time since Josh was born.
We packed up our little touring van, booked onto the ferry and away we went. We had decided that France would be our destination, and we HAD to be close to Disneyland Paris.
We found the most wonderful caravan site, that even without Disney, this would have been a great holiday. La Croix du Vieux Pont was amazing, with 3 pools, waterslides, it’s own man-made beach and a bakery with freshly baked bread everyday (and Pain Creme – how I love Pain Creme). There were loads of extra things for everyone to do, some where free – some needed paying for….they had cards that you could buy, which got you some extra money on it.
We were about 20 minutes outside of Soissons, which is only 1 hour from Disneyland Paris…fantastic.
Josh now believes France to be the best place in the world ,I mean they have Disney, a caravan site with all the above on, and they have the Eiffel Tower – how can it not be awesome.
Now on to the images, these are just our arrival in France, travel to the site and around the actual site. Disneyland Paris and Our trip to Paris will be blogged soon.
There were no bluebirds over the White Cliffs of Dover on this day!!!
This guy didn’t even have a ticket.
An excited little boy…and no seasickness
Nice to know France was just as wet as England

The Outside pool, you can see the inside pool just behind it, the kids pool – which is like a bath is just to side. Josh loved the pool

Looking back accross the lake
Josh is ready to get wet

Having a play, on one of the parks
More beach time
Josh loved playing on the beach, even more so that it was right outside the van.
That’s it for now, I’ll be blogging about the pool and other such fun during another blog….but I have the rest of the trip to get up first.
