Description

Smith family camping holiday at Highbank Farm, Hardhorn - playing on the farm and feeding the chickens. They rent a beach hut at Cleveleys and the kids play on the beach before visiting a playground. A visit to Blackpool Pleasure Beach and the kids go on some small rides. The family are then seen boarding a plane at Manchester Airport, and the take-off is filmed through the window. In America, Michael goes sledging with relatives and the Christmas tree is collected, before the adults dance at a party. They go sightseeing in Washington, Gettysburg and Annapolis.
