I Love New York

Ahh New York… I do think you are one of my favourite places. The final chapter of our four week November holiday included 6 days in New York and what can I say, I fell in love with it all over again. This was my 4th visit to the Big Apple and it was every bit as enjoyable as all my ...continue reading →

Washington DC. Check.

When we were planning our holiday several months back we knew we would spend a majority of time in the US but we didn’t want to just stay in California.

So instead of daily blogging, you’ll just have to settle for ...continue reading →

That’s exciting and sad at the same time. The lower stress levels are beneficial, but the fun of planning will be missed. I suppose there are still a few things ...continue reading →
