Advantages: Gorgeous location, excellent views, lovely swimming pool Disadvantages: Can only get nice views if its a sunny day.
...Myself and my boyfriend went to Thailand in October 2007, where we spent three nights in Bangkok and then a further 9 nights in Ko Samui. While we were in Ko Samui, we decided to hire out a Jeep so we were free to visit all the attractions we wanted to. One of these attractions was Paradise Park Farm.
About Paradise Park Farm

... Hotel ParadiseResort, Lanzarote *
Well my family and I had this holiday booked since the end of January so we had been looking forward to it all year. Neither of us had ever been to Lanzarote so we didn't know what to expect. It was my mum and brothers first time abroad where it was hot; they've been place in Europe France mainly on previous holidays but not a sunny holiday. It was also my little brothers first time on a plane so he was well excited.

Advantages: Aquarium, rides ,weather Disadvantages: Price of flights
...waited on a taxi a man got out a limosine and approached us offering a lift. My dad thought it would cost a fortune but much to our surprise this was a taxi. It had televisions and an assortment of gadgets in it and onl cost $15 to take us in to town. The next day we jet skis and took part in other various activities. The rest of the holiday continued in the same, amazing pattern. The only downside to this amazing holiday is the price. It is expensive to fly out there and is also expensive to purchase anything around the resort. However , if you go in to town you will find the same stuff and much better prices. And as for the weather, I went in the summer two years ago and still have a tan. For more info just type "atlantis" into your search engine....

Every now and then a movie will sneak up and catch you by surprise. So it was for me with Paradise Now, a film I knew nothing about, other than a website blurb about two potential suicide bombers.

I have read a few books by Katie Fforde and have always found them light and enjoyable reads. 'Paradise Fields' was no exception and was just the right book to wind down with over Christmas!
