We had spent the past few years too poor to go on holiday. I suppose you never really know how much children cost until you have them! This year, we had scraped enough together to go to the coral sea holiday village in egypt with both the kids. We were also going to be bringing my parents so they could look after the children once in a while, though they would of course be paying for their own ticket! Of course, with the children never having flown before, we were a little worried how well behaved they would be but they actually surprised all of us. They were very calm and polite to the staff on the plane. Once they had their headphones in and started watching toy story 3, we barely heard a peep out of them. While they were busy, the rest of us tucked into some wine!
