If I had Grandchildren I would take them to the Snowdonia National Park for two weeks. So much to do and explore and it would require stamina.

Trouble is, for each one I would want to take them to a different place and time, to suit their ages and personalities!

My 11 year old granddaughter longs to go to Disneyland, I would love to take her there while she is young enough to enjoy the magic of it all. My two year old twin grandsons are far too young for that, I would take them to the wild amazing Northumberland coast.

One of my granddaughters lives in New York and the other in UK . I would love to take them both to New England especially to Bar Harbor and then travel down to Martha's Vineyard .
I have always told them ''My soul belongs in Maine''

I would take my grandchildren to India. They would love it. They adore animals and the idea of conservation. What adventures we would have zooming around in a rickshaw, dipping in the Ganges, train rides, Elephants, tigers, an exotic culture . I think we would all learn so much and have our eyes opened!

I would love to take my Grandaughter to the same caravan park in Wales where I took her Mum when she was young. We spent all our summer holidays and half term holidays in Anglesey and it was like a second home to us.

It would be so wonderful to walk down memory lane with my grandaughter and show her all the special and familiar places that I took her Mum to when she was a young girl.

I used to tell my daughter that one day she would be grown up and be able to take her own child to Wales for fun on the beach and it would be amazing to make it a reality for her.
We have so many old memories to relive that would be a treasure to create.
