August 2016 – Summer Holiday

Gite Holiday to Rousselie Haute

The House

Beautiful and very well appointed gite – will be hard to top – may very well be back.

Swimming

One way to get the kids in the pool:

Or let them do it themselves…

But once you are in, it is time to have fun:

It wasn’t all Pool

A lot of the holiday was spent in the pool but we did break out one day to go to the market at Brantome (Sophie in pink, Alice in blue):

 

Grand-Etang-de-la-Jemaye

Other than Brantome the only other place we branched out to was La Jemaye. A beautiful lake with beach and canoes, also a brilliant buffet restaurant!

Other bits and bobs

The twins managed to play very well together all(?) holiday:

Mama and Beard Grandad took Ella to the local village’s (Lisle) summer fete, highlights were hooking a duck to win a “guitar” and some assisted trampolining:

Best to last!
