I didn't get that much sleep as it was too hot and the fans we had didn't work, so woke up feeling rather grouchy. We did some morning swimming after breakfast and I took a tube out onto the lake. A false sense of security, but it got me out nevertheless. Edd had the other tube and spent a great deal of his time pretending to get pulled down into the water and eaten.We had some lunch and a 30 minute nap before we set off for the afternoon's activities. We left on...

We'd been at Tara Raft for 5 nights. We found out on the last morning that they serve breakfast. We were both delighted and dismayed at this fact as we had walked to the high street every day to get food when in fact, it was served in our own accommodation. We had a knock at the door by the 'Visit Beyond' tour guide at exactly 11am, as they were there to fetch us for the Lake House Adventure. We decided to take all our water with us as we knew we were getting gi...

We woke up 3 times in the early hours of Friday morning, both concerned we'd oversleep again. We got up at 6.30am to the harassment of my alarm, dressed and packed for the days activities. We walked down to Tara B&B on the high street as we wanted to have a good breakfast before we got picked up. Funnily enough, we both had the same attitude: please, no noodles! We were both in the mood for a real English: eggs, bacon & toast (we weren't going to push our...
