'Getting Away Online'

We have just discovered there is a big world out there as far as the internet is concerned.
We have been told to explore booking holidays online. 'WOW' this is a vast area

First as a family we sat down to actually decide where we would like to go on holiday, we normally go to Spain, but last year we had a week in Jersey which we fully enjoyed. Kieran does not like flying, so Spain and Jersey are ideal places for us to go.

We went on various websites and each of us had a go at looking at different web sites such as 'lastminute.com'. We had a game to see who could find the best deal. Sophie won as she can be quite competitive.

We found some great deals away for a family for a week, half board and good flight times. We like to take out a holiday package so the transfers run quite smoothly. After hours of exploring the net we came to the decision before we confused ourselves anymore further of prices and places to go, that we would like to go back to Jersey. We enjoyed the Hotel we stopped in last year the flight was very short and the airport procedure ran so smoothly and most of all Kieran enjoyed the flight and holiday.

We found out that we could email the Hotel direct and they could sort out a package deal for the family, we had a quote saving over £400 compared to last years price, which we were amazed at. So we may go ahead and book this holiday in the near distant future.

We have also been shown how to set up BT's Digital Vault this enables you to upload and store photos while we are away without taking up to much space on our PC hard drive - and would also allow our family to view them too to see what we are up to. This is a good facility as Sophie and Kieran are close to their nan and grandad and like to stay in touch. A plus side for us as we only go away once a year the standard facility for BT's Digital Vault is free, so thats even better for us and the step by step guide is easy to use, even for Sophie and KIeran's Nan and Grandad to use.

Sophie is getting a little jet-setter at the moment her next school trip is to Paris, and then a little closer to home Brean caravan park with her netball team. Maybe she will be adding Jersey to her list for the year, she is costing us a small fortune!!!
