The villa is booked for two weeks so are hitting the road. Packed up the car, strapped in the kids, and starting off by heading south to the island of Elba. We spend a few days in Elba which is lovely but a four hour drive PLUS waiting 2 hours for ferry and then driving to hotel from ferry. We stay at X, an all inclusive family resort. There is an enormous shallow pool, which is perfect for the kids, but is VERY salty and Miss Pudding complains that her eyes are irritated. On the plus side, the place is geared towards families and there is a staff of four college kids whose job was to facilitate games and activities with the kids day and night. My kids are shy but they like the idea. We spend the first night dancing to hokey tunes. The staff immediately love me because I am the only adult who will get up and dance with the kids. I figure, what do I have to lose? And i need the exercise :) Petite is shy at first but is also very intent on copying the teacher's moves precisely. Miss Pudding is happy to do her own thing, moving from modern dance, to a ballet combo, as her whims guide her.
