Challaborough

Last week saw us in South Devon at Challaborough enjoying a cool but relatively dry week at the beach. Our caravan was right next to the beach but before arriving we had to risk the extremely narrow lanes leading to the site and a sat nav which seemed determined to take us down the most seldom used tracks in the south west.

The campsite was typical of its type with a range of activities provided for children throughout the day along with evening entertainment that was fun to watch despite the variability in quality. I doubt I'll ever watch a balloon entertainer again but he filled an hour and the children seemed to enjoy it.

There were lots of opportunities to meet up with the family and we spent most days with them and are looking forward to Rachael and John's wedding next year as we have a week in Cornwall in the run up to the wedding at Easter.

We played lots of boules and Glen got himself a board to skim the shoreline which he quickly mastered after some intriguing contortions as he sought to gain mastery without plunging into the water.
