Australia you were amazing

And just like that, our incredible time in Australia had come to an end. The trip had been short but amazing and the journey to get there was long, but absolutely so worth it. And yes we will definitely be returning in the not so distant future. We booked our trip on...

Brisbane day 8

Waking up to blue skies and sunshine was definitely the best way to wake up (the view obviously helped) With no set plans as such we still didn’t want to waste the day away with a lazy lay in so it was up, dressed and ready to leave at a respectable 10am. As always...

Brisbane 2004 day 7

Falling asleep looking out of the window on the 79th floor of the Sky Tower was my new obsession! I was definitely going to miss these views. So after an amazing sleep it was a super exciting Sunday as we were heading off to Australia zoo - home of the crocodile...

Gold Coast & Brisbane day 6

Okay, so I kind of woke up to more rain…..but I did wake up to the most insane view, and so it made up for the fact that it was indeed raining again (seriously AGAIN!) On this particular wet Saturday morning it was time to pack up our suitcases and check out of our...

Gold Coast Day 5

After the best nights sleep (like a proper non jet lagged sleep) I woke up to sunshine and the most amazing view , and it instantly put the biggest smile on my face. I got up just after 8am and was out of the door by 9am. We had breakfast at No Name Lane cafe and bar...

Sydney & Gold Coast 2024 Day 4

Sydney Day 3

With Jet lag still doing its thing - making it impossible to stay awake past 5pm and waking up by 6am every morning, Luke and I were once again out the door by 8am! It was for the most part another pretty chilly day in Sydney. You did get these really warm periods,...
