We went to the Wild Duck Haven site in Belton, Great Yarmouth and had a fantastic time!. It was definately a trial and error weekend knowing what we should of took and what we could of lived without, but it didnt spoil our weekend at all and loved loved loved it! We really wished we could of stayed longer!

We're just back from our second family weekend - both H and I camped with our parents but just starting out with our toddler this year.  Like you, we are learning the hard way things we need and things we can do without - I guess as with most things in life, practise makes perfect!

 

Glad to hear you had a good time, though

Now your fun starts......

Count up how many times a conversation starts with " Do you think we need to get.........."

Bet you look at roof boxes, trailers, EHU, bigger car.......OMG the list is endless

Glad you enjoyed your trip though
