The sunny Channel Island of Jersey is the Ulster Fly destination for
the McCann family from Newry. Leonard McCann his wife Joanne and their
children Niall and Lauren. At the end of the 1 hour 15 minute flight to
Jersey, it is only a 20 minute drive to the Merton Hotel in St. Helier,
where the family will be spending the week.
At only 45 square miles in area, Jersey is perfectly
suited for some leisurely touring. Suzanne hires a car and heads out along
the picturesque east coast, where she discovers the pretty little harbour
town of Gorey
and a string of secluded coves, such as Bouley Bay. And Joe gets on
his bike and explores the quiet lanes and backwaters, easily
and safely navigated via the Green Lanes.
Jersey is not the place to go for noisy theme parks and
razamatazz, but the McCanns thoroughly enjoy their visit to the
amaizing Maze, where an enterprising farmer has set up tractor
rides, water pistol fights and a confusing walk through a maize field
- a maze in the maize!
