Hey Waldo
it was quality family time, and the rain did stay away, but OMG the wind, it destroyed both our tents (both still standing, but battered and buckled)
the beach was a no go, the wind was whipping up a sand storm and it hit us in the face as soon as we got to the sea wall, spent most of the time in the swimming pool and in the arcades spending too much ££ on junk, but as you say, it was quality time with the family, and the whole buckled tent situation just pulled us together to fix the d.a.m thing (lots of string and duct tape did the job)
but man o man, last night, the wind, woke up this morning with the tent completely destroyed, guide ropes snaped, tent poles twisted and split and tent canvas ripped and torn in multiple places, had to fight my way out of my pod, needless to say, we came home 2 tents lighter than when we left
all in all tho, it was good (expensive, but good) and an experience we wont forget in a while, lol
