This year we headed to Kidwelly, Wales for Christmas. On the day, it was just Alex and I and my in-laws as our niece and nephew and their parents were spending the day with their other grandparents. Although it isn't quite as exciting when the kids aren't part of the morning, it was a relaxing and festive day and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Yes, a UK Christmas begins with Bucks Fizz (Mimosa to we Americans) and the imbibing continues throughout the day and evening...and begins again again on Boxing Day! :)
This year Alex had planned to do the Walrus Run (crazy people jumping into the sea) but it was so bitterly cold this year, and snowing, that the event was actually cancelled. But because we were keen to get Alex out there, we told a fib and said it was on for a bit later in the morning. Well, my mother-in-law is not good at telling tales, and he found us out before we left the house, but we all had a good laugh about it. Maybe next year, Alex!
