Dreaming of a Summer Holiday


The family and I have been lucky enough to go on a summer holiday abroad every year, and in fact Logan's first holiday to a sunnier climate was when he was 9 months old. With the horrible weather recently, those pesky cold winds and freezing snow, it's had me thinking about jetting away to some where nice and warm. I've booked up a few short breaks for the family this year but everything's in the UK so we've yet to decide on our next destination abroad. I better get a move on soon though!

Since Logan's autistic the other half and I tend to stick to booking villas when we fly away. It's like a home from home for Logan and keeps things as natural as possible i.e. a home environment for him. We've tried hotel rooms before and for a couple of days that's fine but for a week or two it's a little bit too much. Plus in some hotels the restaurants don't open till later (around 7pm) and Logan can't wait that long. With a villa you can do as you please and take life easy which is perfect when you have kids. That's why we were really lucky for the past 3 years to stay at a gorgeous villa in Fuerteventura. It was owned by a friend who is unfortunately selling up, which makes me sad, so this means we'll need to look for a new family friendly place to visit. 

For those that want to know Fuerteventura is a brilliant island which is part of the Canaries and practically gets beautiful warm weather all year round. Even when it's 1 or 2 degrees here guaranteed it'll be at least 19-21 there. As I mentioned it's super family friendly as well. We stayed in Caleta de Fuste and it has lots of play parks dotted around outside cafes and restaurants, so the kids can play whilst you relax and eat. Oh how I wish we could go back this year.

To cheer myself up I've added in a few of my fav photos for you to enjoy.
