Fiji Featured Fiji 2019 Six Sense This year we decided to go back to Fiji but try a different hotel - we'd been to Vomo about 4 times in a row so we'd just thought we'd checkout somewhere different for a change. So we headed over to Six Senses. It
2021 New Bali Badung We decided that we'd go back to Bali for a holiday now that Oscar and Evie were getting older we (thought) it might be easier. It wasn't but it was still a really fun trip. Evie got really confident with the pool on this trip which
2021 New Featured Vomo 2018 Another year, another Vomo trip! We have not found a better place to stay! This time we went with Beach Anma and Poppy and stay in the 'BeacHouse' - I liked called it Beac House - rather than Beach House which I think is what they were going
2021 New Featured Wolgan Valley Bike Wolgan Valley is an awesome eco-resort style hotel that we visited. It has lots and lots of animals. Because we live on a main road Oscar doesn't get much bike training but he learnt how to ride a bike properly thanks to the great paths and free bikes
2021 New Featured Vomo 2017 Another year another trip to the Fiji resort of Vomo - it really could not be a better location for family with kids. It has great nanny service, the island is beautiful with amazing walks and Oscar and Evie have an excellent time! So do the parents as we get
2021 New Featured Queenstown 2017 I'm a big fan of "winter breaks" - I like the idea of going to somewhere cold once in a while (but only for a little bit). So we headed to Queenstown - it was very cold indeed but we had a great time. We even
Featured Paris Megeve Montreux Part 2 of our trip to Europe last summer! The Euro Disney part of the trip was very expensive and the Disney hotel we’d stayed in hadn’t had a renovation or update since I stayed there with my parents in 1992 it was like going into a time
NSW Heritage Plate Price Performance 2012-2017 I’m a big fan of heritage plates – they are numeral only plates that were first issued between 1910-1924 that are quite hard to come by. Shannon’s does a twice yearly auction in Sydney. Are they an investment though? 3 Digit plates like ‘317’ or ‘960’ appear to have
2021 New Featured Fiji 2016 Well I decided to start doing the blog again - so that there's a memory of all of the things we've done. It is a shame I didn't write words down at the time but with modern internet. In 2016 we went to Fiji

Featured Thailand Again We went to Thailand in 2011 it was a great holiday however it rained every single day and it wasn’t even the rainy season! We stayed at a place called Six Senses and I always said to Amy we should go back and see it again without the rain.
Curl Curl 1913 to 2014 I found this historical photo of Curl Curl which looks like it was taken almost from where we live. Mouse over the image to see the transition.

Fiji Featured Vomo Resort At the end of the summer Amy organised a trip for us all to go to a place called Vomo in Fiji. Fiji is a convenient 4.5 hour flight from Sydney so it’s an awesome overseas adventure without having to really go very far. The flight was very
Annual Updates Back in the day blog posts used to happen a few times a month, now they barely happen once per year. I was trying to think of the reasons behind that and I’ve boiled them down to – * Having a baby boy/toddler takes up time * Running a business full
Hamilton Island For my Birthday this year we went to Hamilton Island for a short break. Hamilton Island is a small Island East of Queensland, also referred to as “Hawaii” by people from the United States. It was a surprise trip so I didn’t know I was going until I opened
8 Month Update How did 8 months go by without a blog post? Well it’s probably because we can now share images with family and friends at the click of a button on the iPhone now. It’s still nice to write stories as there’s so much you forget so I’
Fleet Review This week Sydney hosts it’s 2nd centennial event to review the Navy fleet. As a previous member of the Navy (Scout Squadron RN06) I had to go down and see some of the ships. I especially wanted to see British warship D32 HMS Daring, which is the currently the
Remastered Featured UK Trip 2013 This has to be the longest blog dry spell for as long as the blog has been in existence! 5 months of no posts, you’d think I’d have abandoned it, well that’s not the case, blogging is still fun to do, it’s just the time now
