Through the eyes of a child

This is us on our holidays in the van, as drawn by our 5 year old daughter. She even drew the bike rack on the back. 8)
1989 VW T25 Holdsworth Villa 3

It's got a VW motor, a 116.8 cubic inch plant, Michelin tyres, VW suspension, VW shocks. It's a model made before catalytic converters so it'll run good on regular gas. What do you say, is it the new RedSquirrel bus or what?

We were on our way to the swimming pool which, apparently, was down the flower lined path and just off the picture.

She's got those cumulus clouds about right, unless it's Christmas day and they're paper hats from your crackers that have been blown to the winds...

Lovely picture

Yeah, put your roof down before you drive off, it has dire consequences!

Not driven off with the roof up, but I did forget to clip it down when we first got it. Luckily we were only doing about 20 MPH coming up to a roundabout when the wind caught it and it popped up. :oops: :shock:

Lovely ! Shame is by the time they're 7 - 10 they're using the Clip-art and/or Photoshop to change the clipart 'velle to a hi-top camper and placing it in the Himalayas or Pacific and ...... well,you'll see :lol:

Enjoy and keep those pictures really safe,it reminds me of one of our young ladies (eldest now 10-going on 30) :cry: She now criticises my 'choice' in trainers and comments on 'strange noises' when I'm in the bath :oops: :rofl
