we often went on family trips or outings together.
So, it came as a big surprise to me when i knew
that husband's last family trip was many years ago
and they probably didnt travel as a family for 10years!
Anyway, I suggested that we should do a family trip
and I proposed that we can go centerparc,
which is resort style place in the forest
where they used to spend christmas there
when they were kids.
To my surprise, after exploring the options of trips,
the in laws think that centerparc is a great idea!
So, all was booked and we were to go for 4 days at the end of october...
I didnt bring my camera because my mil is a big fan to take pictures
so i left the 'honor' for her to do so
and i dont have any photos to add to this blog.
I googled to give an idea of centerparc:
The biggest attraction is the indoor poor
which comes with a few water rides (Free)
while the other activites, eg bowling, golf...
are payable and quite expensive.
Since we went on a long weekend here in France,
I think we were prepared for the crowd.
However, is my first time to a public pool here,
i was totally shocked by the amount of people in the pool!
They had a counter outside the ppol entrance
and i think at 1 moment it shown 800+?!
Frankly, i do not remember much of the holiday,
except it was swimming pool every single day.
I think I got overdose of the pool
especially when im not really a water-person
and when its super crowded.
but it seems swimming pools are not so many as in Sg,
the family really wanted to make full use of the pool.
The rest of the holidays were spent in the cottage,
where the in laws brought lots of food to cook our meals,
having long conversations
and playing some boardgames.
It did felt a little like christmas where we spend time at in law's home
but i think is still nice to be out together as a family.
Probably im not a big fan of centerparc for now,
but it will be nice when we have more kids in the family..
Hmm, i guess its time to use my power of persuasion
to start thinking about family trip 2017??
