Iceland. Sheesh way to be the most amazing place ever. Ok, so Claire got here on the Saturday, with the specific reason to meet us and all go to Iceland for the week. Very exciting stuff. We were flying WOW air, which I wasn't even sure was a real airline until we got to the airport, and turns out they are actually hilarious to fly with.

my room was actually called holy blood hahaha  Yeah so the majority of them are all over exposed and whitey but ah. A while back I went to Brugge (Bruges) for a three day working weekend with the family I work for. They were going for a wedding, which I got to go to also. We went on the Eurotunnel to get there, which was cool, I'd not been on it before. Dunno quite what I was expecting there, but weirrrrrd. Just drive on in to a huge train, they shut it up and off you go. Bonjour France in 35 minutes. Not too bad really. We drove straight to Belgium and in to Bruges to check in to the hotel, which was this really cute one on the canal called...the >Hotel de Orangerie<  which was super cute and fancy but I managed to get bitten like 6 times by a mosquito. Me and the children were in our own family room upstairs from ma n pa, which was pretty cute. We had a movies and pizza picnic on my bed after the wedding. Who enjoyed it...
