Staycation

 Simon and I had a little staycation the other day.  We had such a lovely time!

We started the day using some vouchers we got for Christmas at Gillian Adams Spa. Time in the  aquamedic pool and a massage was the perfect way to start our staycation.

We then headed into the city and scored an upgrade to a suite at The Intercontinental. Such a fab location and the view from our room was amazing!!

We had the sunshine for most of the day but a storm rolled in as we had cocktails at Aster on the 32nd floor of the hotel. We enjoyed the light show!

We then walked to dinner at The Meat & Wine Co. 

We loved the food and the moody vibe in the outside area.

Thanks to a late check out we enjoyed a sleep in, a delicious buffet breakfast before heading over to the Art Gallery of NSW to check out the Ron Mueck exhibition.

We loved it and couldn't get over the realism of the sculptures! So good!

We wandered around the rest of the gallery before heading home.

It's amazing how restorative a night away can be. Definitely something to schedule more often x

City Staycation - December 2023

One of my Christmas gifts this year was a stay at Crown Towers at Barangaroo.

It was great to have a night away and explore a different area of the city as we haven't been over the Barangaroo/Darling Harbour way for a few years. I love all the changes. It's a real vibe.

We loved Crown and were so impressed with the interiors and service.

We had an amazing dinner at Epicurean and the buffet was one of the best I've seen.

A novelty to try all the various bits n pieces. The chocolate fountain was a hit. The boys are dying to go!

We'll definitely be back x

Noah is 11!

The baby of the family turned 11 last week!

He left for school camp early on the day of his birthday so we celebrated with cake and pressies the night before and then continued the celebrations with a staycation in the city and a trip to Luna Park on the weekend .

Happy Birthday Noah! We hope you had the best birthday xx

School Holidays - week 2

 We enjoyed more beautiful weather during the second week of the school holidays.

We also fit in a city staycation, a visit to the aquarium, a boat ride on the harbour, catch up with friends and had soccer starting again. We'll start next term feeling refreshed and relaxed!
