2008, Day Nine, Houlgate

Day nine 9th June.
. 

At last the sun came out, so we spent a nice welcome hot day in and around the pool.  The new slides weren't open so I asked the guy at the takeaway why, the answer was simple, if they turn the water on to them in the morning, it cools the pool, on the afternoon when the sun is on the slides it warms the pool.  On the afternoon the slides opened as promised and we spent hours on them (the grownups taking shifts on the slides).

 

As we had had a tiring day and nobody could be bothered to cook, we all went over to the bar for tea, as long as you do not drink too much, the price is quite reasonable.

 

Back at the chalet, we watched some football (as we have most nights) with a couple of beers but it's not the same when none of the home nations are in it, especially England.
