Britain

Travelling with two young babies to Japan was just not enough for us! My mums 70 birthday and my sisters 40th had us all on a long hall flight to the UK. The girls, now seasoned intercontinental travellers took the flight in their stride despite being ill the day we left and after about 20 hours on the road we arrived in the Lake District for a pint at the local pub. We had a great time in the lakes but unfortunately passed on the girls bugs (sorry) and then headed for the big family party.

The party was great fun and the girls met all the extended family and were little angels having adjusted to the time difference. They also got to meet their cousins who as you can see found them a bit of a handful!

After the party, we left in heavy snowfall (I thought we had left that at home) and headed North to Edinburgh for some quiet time before the long, long trip back home.
