Day One Our first day in Washington. Mike had to take the rental car back and it took about four hours. Road works meant a diversion so he got lost....we worried a little but he finally turned up at lunch time.We went to the Air and Space museum this afternoon. The older boys were very interested but George found it a little hard to concentrate. We walked down to the Capitol, got some photos then came back to the hotel. We only had to walk about 1 K in total but...

New York, New York!! Day One Today was so much fun. We hired bikes and rode to Central Park and had a picnic for lunch. To get to the Park we had to ride down Broadway...something I never thought I'd do. George sat on the back of Mikes bike on a child seat and we all rode around for about three hours. Our hotel is two blocks from Times Square so we went out at about 6.00 to see the lights and also visit the M&M store. Tonight the boys had hotdogs and chips....

Part Two of Anaheim.... Day Four Today we spent the morning by the pool and afternoon at Disneyland. We were out at the pool at 10.00, me with no block on...by 11.00 my legs had burnt. No, I haven't learnt my lesson, I didn't think you could get burnt at 10.00 in the morning. Thankfully I made the boys put block on before they go into the water. They had a lot of fun swimming, sunbathing and soaking in the hot tub... (which is very hot.) We went to lunch at Iho...

We've left San Diego after a very busy three days, for Anaheim. The rental car has been dropped off and we spent the afternoon by the pool in the sun relaxing. Jack and I are both sunburnt, not badly but enough to remind us that sunblock is needed. (It's always Jack and I.) For the next six days we're going to relax and spend a couple of days at Disneyland. We're off to buy Inline Hockey gear tomorrow, something the boys have been looking forward to. I'd really...

Our trip from San Francisco was long and the boys found the trip hard going. We didn't get lost and only had one mishap. At the end of our journey Mike was doing a U Turn, (legal) and ended up trying to drive down the wrong side of an adjacent street. He had just completed a 10 hour drive with 3 squabbling boys in the back seat and 'possibly' a nagging wife sitting beside him - so he did very well. Day One We took a day trip to Tijuana. I hate the place but you...
