July 2010: England trip
We spent much of July in England, as usual. The weather was good enough to allow us several days out on Dartmoor and at the beach, including our favourite, Polzeath. A particular highlight for the girls this year was a horse riding session on the moor.

March 2010: Alabama and Florida trip
We took a short trip during Spring Break to Mobile, Alabama to see the Gulf Islands and beaches. Along the way we visited Mobile's Battleship Memorial Park, home of Second World War vessels USS Alabama and USS Drum (a submarine). Fascinating stuff, for Rob at least. That, and the ferry ride across Mobile Bay from Fort Morgan to Dauphin Island. The girls enjoyed shell hunting on the Alabama and Florida beaches far more. We were happily surprised to see how few people were there, given this was spring break. We were lucky too - this was just a month before BP's Deepwater Horizon oil spill.
