Our first family holiday to Wales.

• Didn’t realise the drive would take 6 hours
• Oldest kid is somewhat on the spectrum, we stupidly didn’t talk about it before we left
• Kid decided he didn’t like it the moment we pull up to sign in and wanted to go home
• We tried to stick it out but he just complained about everything
• 2 days in youngest kid starts doing the same
• The wife starts feeling sick too, turns out eldest was actually sick from nursery
• Wife gets sicker than she’s ever been, can’t get out of bed
• Everything is horribly expensive (it was some knock off center parcs thing) which we didn’t really budget for
• It rains the whole time
• Everyone is in bed the most of the days, have maybe 1 nice afternoon
• No one sleeps through the night, spend most of the time lying on the floor hard floor
• Decide to come home after 4 days even though we paid for 7

Massive waste of time, money and energy, going somewhere shorter and cheaper next time!
