New Stroller!

We mentioned at the end of our trip to North Berwick that we returned with a broken stroller. This was a bit crippling, since sometimes all three girls want to be carried or ride when we go places!!! So, we knew that we wouldn't be able to make it through the rest of our time here without any kind of stroller. 


After much searching, I was able to find something on the internet that looked like it would be perfect for the kids, narrow streets, and cobblestone/brick paved roads. It's a proper UK stroller! It's rather versatile. It came with an add on seat for the back bottom so that it can easily be a single or double stroller. It also folds down, so I should be able to take it on the bus or through the airport.


I was excited about getting the stroller and talked it up a bit. It arrived when the girls were sleeping. When they woke up and saw it they went NUTS! Claire, Dani, and I had to immediately go to Starbucks. However, it started raining. So, we returned to the flat soaking wet without coffee. And, would you believe that the girls refused to get out?!?! 


Since then, they've tipped it over several times, but they still fight over who gets to ride in it. And, the biggest deal is who gets to ride on the bottom. We thought that nobody would want to ride down there since the visibility is so low. Once, we even fit all 3 girls in the stroller! And, it handles so easily any of the girls can push it (with a little guidance from us)! What a wonderful purchase! I hope it endures the rest of our trip here and the flights back home!!!

Oh, and the brand is Phil & Ted. So, this is our Phil and Ted's excellent stroller!
