This picture mostly amuses me because of Esmes face. The grandparents insisted we take a selfie with my selfie stick then got annoyed it looked like I was taking a selfie in the picture. Not sure they have the hang of this just yet.

Left the grandparents house to head to the other grandparents house. Was a fairly long trip with lots of traffic caused by a couple of accidents and also blatantly nothing at points. Made it in just over 5 hours.

Everyone was in a pretty grumpy mood and so we headed out for a quick meal with the hopes of getting back to the hotel nice and early for a quiet evening. On the way to look for somewhere it started raining and then full on heavily hailing and we got absolutely soaking wet. We decided to take refuge in a shopping mall where Esme saw they had a McDonald's (which she's been craving for over a week). We went in search for it, still soaking wet, with lots of people staring and I imagine wondering how we had gotten in this state in what had previously been thirty degrees heat.

We finally found the McDonald's and AJ and Esme were put in charge of ordering while I saved a table and mark went to get his own food because he refuses to eat McDonald's. While I was waiting the table got over taken by people who then started trying to chat me up in French despite the fact I was pretty weather beaten. They eventfully got escorted out by the security man and AJ and Esme turned up with almost nothing they had ordered after attempting in French. So we ate what we had and headed to a creperie where Esme and I had the worst slushies I've ever tasted and we all got kicked off the tables before AJ even managed to finish eating.
