When in the Pacific Northwest, especially the Puget South Sound area, Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium is one of the cool places to see and this is the only zoo and aquarium combined in this area as well. We love going there and now that the kids are growing and curious with different animals and wildlife, this is a good place for them to be educated. Last summer we were there and we are planning to go back there again soon when the weather gets warmer. This past Christmas we were not able to witness their yearly Zoolights event. I love their mission and vision, which is to foster harmonious relation with people and wildlife here on earth and with that they are determined to protect and conserve wildlife.

When I was still in my parents house my sister gave them a fridge. During the course of the year, the wear and tear and everything else, it is now come down to just holding on and anytime soon it will stop working. My parents are old and having an old and almost non-working refrigerator is something I don’t want them to think about. This is why I am wishing to be able to give them something to get the replacement  fridge freezer. I am looking at surprising them this holiday also but I will just see if I can squeeze in some more funds for it.

The good thing is that the ever generous Fairy Hobmother had fulfilled some of my wishes. Those already came off my back. The rest in my wish list will for sure be fulfilled at a given time. I will continue to be nice and hopefully I will be blessed more and can make more loved ones to be happy this Christmas.

I know it is not yet too late to wish upon the fairy. So follow Fairy Hobmother on Twitter and give him some love by leaving a short comment here with your blog site or email for him to contact you. It’s really a blessing that he came by as his help is very much needed and I so appreciate it a lot. From the bottom of my heart I thank thee!

As you would expect, a Tunisia holiday has everything you need for a postcard perfect beach break. Although sugary sands and twinkling waters are an ideal backdrop for every traveller, going abroad with the brood can require a little more entertainment than blue flag beaches.

Tunisia getaways are reasonably priced. For the best holiday deals check online in advance and take your pick from the range of early bird offers available.
An alternative option to European trips – such as the Canaries and the Balearics – you may wonder if your Tunisia holiday would be fitting for a family holiday. As well as safe shorelines and excellent attractions, popular tourist resorts, such as Hammamet, are policed open areas.

With the safety of the resort aside, it’s time to concentrate on the fun stuff. Youngsters are always happy digging for treasure and building epic sandcastles on superb shorelines, and Sousse, Nabeul and Hammamet sands are all perfect for the job.

When you do want to head out, away from your hotel, Tunisia will surprise you with the amount of family friendly attractions in the region.
A favourite with locals and tourists alike, Carthage Land boasts a splash park, rides, mazes and more. Easily a full day of fun, children can explore the two parks and zoo before cooling off at Aqua Land.

If you’re looking for a relaxing evening with a chilled out clan, then take the kids to Bouncy Tune Park during the day to run off some steam. This outdoor attraction is filled with inflatables for a crazy, action packed day of activity.

Hammamet’s Friguia Park is the largest wildlife centre in Tunisia; over 60 species of animals are on show. Easily providing half a day of animal magic, this is a relaxing treat for everyone in the family.

The best holiday deals are online now. Book a Tunisia holiday for a family adventure that will never fail to surprise you.
