The best holiday ever
 
 
What a fantastic holiday!

 

These are comments from children whose Dad arranged a balloon flight from the garden of Au Compte, courtesy of Association "Entre Ciel et Terre" based in a nearby hamlet.  It takes around 2 hours for the flight and you can have champagne either during or at the end of it.


“This holiday has been such a fun-packed adventure. During our break in France our family has had so much fun!
First of all, we went to a place called ‘Air Park’ where we went up into the trees with our harnesses and did a number of assault courses. It was really fun!
Then, we went kayaking on the Dordogne and it really taught us about team effort.
Lastly, Dad organised a surprise treat for us – he told us that a man was coming to our garden to set up a hot air balloon! It was amazing! You could see the wonderful view, everyone stopped to wave and it was so relaxing floating in the sky.
Overall, I think this year’s holiday has been the best holiday EVER!“

“My holiday was really exciting as we went to ‘Air Park’ – a tree climbing place where you can climb but it’s really good because they let you do it yourself. Also, we went kayaking. It was really fun and we only got a bit wet!
Then we went in a hot air balloon but instead of driving to a place somewhere, they came to the field at the back of the gîte. It was amazing to see from above!
It has been the most amazing holiday ever!“

“I have had a great holiday in the last two weeks.
I have been staying in a lovely comfortable gîte.
I have been climbing in the trees, kayaking in the river Dordogne and capsized in the river Dordogne!
We had a hot air balloon ride, taking off from the back garden of our gîte.
It has been one of the most exciting things out of my holiday. We went to a really good adventure park and I have had the most exciting holiday of my life!“

This holiday has been pretty mint! The weather has been gorgeous and I definitely got a great tan.
We’ve done so much – climbing, kayaking (we managed to capsize) hot air ballooning with some random French guy, another climbing peace which was very hard & countless markets around the Dordogne region.
I got a fabby semi-permanent tattoo from the night market in Eymet and have insisted on wearing my skinnies on more than one occasion!
I think I’ve badmintoned myself out and Bailey was great fun.
I hope to come back here again.
Over and out
