Storyline

Pop and Ma have won a trip to Paris, so they leave Charley and Mariette in charge of the farm and kids. A storm breaks out, meaning that no airplane can take off, so Pop and Ma's group is stuck in England. Though the rest of the group is very disappointed, and Cynthia, who is responsible for the trip, is at a loss what to do, but Pop saves the day by finding a "chateau" in which he organizes a French party. After having a lot of fun and helping an old couple to revive the flame, Pop and Ma go back to the farm, only to find that a foal is born during the week-end.
