Wish me luck, all. Can kids go in the cargo section?

It's but cheap for a week, even at Easter, but not too crazy given it includes absolutely everything (including a kids club thing, which they really enjoyed last time). We looked at the summer prices for one of the deluxe rooms, meanwhile, and that was £32k for a week pmsl off-peak deffo the way to go!

Kids in paradise - yesterday the elder two were in a teens club which basically involved paddle boarding and jumping off pedalos mid-ocean for three hours, while the youngest did a fashion show. Food another highlight. Grilled shoulder of lamb last night, with some potato hash brown concoction, wild mushrooms and spinach. Was amazing. Barely had room for the al fresco breakfast this morning. Despite starting the week skinny I think I'm gonna head home overweight. But I'll enjoy the process. Chalice, do book restaurants/car shizzle/sunset cruise/any kids stuff you need before heading, cos (this week at least) it's a busy enough that not everything is available last minute. Fingers crossed the weather holds like this for you!
