Can't Hug Every Cat

Sorry to break the news so late, but I got back on the 6th of July. I've just been doing my other blog so I didn't really have time to do this blog. Sadly, this will be my last post and since all the feedback I've had about my blog is 'How was the cat holiday?' I decided to put up a cat video from youtube to end my time blogging. Oh, and don't forget to check out my youtube channel too as I have a couple of cool videos on that. So, without further delay, enjoy the very last video and post I will put on this blog:






PS. If I go on another trip to Europe, I will definately be back and blogging on this blog!

Cool News!

I have some good news for you! I have just started another blog. If you want to check it out, click here. If you don't, well, that's too bad because I think it will be better than this one. It will go for longer, anyway!

Walk Around the Countryside

Well, today we went for a little walk 'round the countryside. It was a nice cloudy day so the sun didn't burn us but it wasn't too cold so when we went through water we didn't get numb toes.
First of all we went along the road looking for a public footbath sign. We then followed the first one we saw, across and over a fence using a stile (steps used to get over fences) and into a paddock. We then went along the fenceline until we came to a gate with some barb wire across it. We figured we shouldn't go there so we went right along the next fence line. I saw some cows and pointed them out to everyone. No sooner had I done that than they came charging over to us, presumably expecting to be fed. They didn't get fed. 


Dawww, look at the cowie wowies.
We then continued our way around the country and headed along back to our hotel, sneaking through a farm at one stage to get through *shhh*. I found it really fun going around looking at the country side and streatching our legs. I hope we do it again at one stage :)

The Four Ps.

First of all, before everyone gets the wrong idea about the title, I'm going to say what these Ps stand for.
P - Pool
P - Pool
P - Pizza
P - Poker
And now I'm going to say why I am putting up these words. Today started with us all just lounging around doing general stuff like eating chocolate and using our computers. Just being plain old lazy. But then we (well mum and dad) decided to be all energetic and go and see the facilities that the Country Club had. So then we all went over with some swimmers just in case and we went to the pool table. We then played three games of pool (I won once with my dad and lost twice with mum and my brother). And that was the first P. So then after that we went over to the heated pool, the version you swim in. We played around in there for a while, doing some laps, that sort of thing until we got a bit tired. When we went back to our room, we had supper which was - you guessed it - pizza. So we ate some pizza and did some general sittin' around until someone came up with the idea of playing a game. So you can probably guess what that game was. Yes, it was poker. Mum emptied her handbag of coins and dad emptied his wallet and we managed a total amount of 9 pounds and 79 pence each. We managed to finish the game before midnight and my brother won.
So that was the day of the four Ps.
Which part was your favorite?

The Country Club Near Bude

So, now that I'm settled in somewhere again, we are now at the Country Club! It's really a lovely place with a variety of animals such as peacocks, squirrels, ducks and more peacocks. The atmosphere is just lovely, meaning we have enough space in our little cottage without being completely deserted. There isn't great storage and I have to share a room again, but it still is really lovely.

Some ducks that wander around.
 This duck is... stupid. The reason I say that is because she started out with 10 ducklings. Now she has 1. How can you do that? Losing that many little ducklings within a week? I don't even know how that is possible.

A magnificent peacock.
 This is the first time I have caught a peocock on camera doing this. I've missed it twice.

One of the squirrels that comes.
Seeing all the animals here is really nice. I like to be able to look out the window and see an animal down there just walking around. And getting so close to a peacock that I can touch it is really cool.
We are here at the Country Club for 2 weeks and 2 days and I think I'm getting pretty good at these multi-hour journeys!
