Some places to stay and weekends away...

I just love the thought of going away! Amongst other things, 12 weeks of holidays a year makes the teaching worth it, and isn't it great to have something to daydream about! Anyway, lately I have booked two short holidays and wanted to share the wealth.


In early September Mark and I are heading up the Blue Mountains for a weekend away and to purchase a very special gift for an upcoming wedding! We will be staying at Bower Studio, a little artist's retreat in Katoomba (single people, start vomiting now!)

And in November I am very excited to be heading back to Byron Bay for my friend Bec's 30th Birthday. Now, as you know, Byron Bay is out of control as far as value for money is concerned. But check this place out, It's right across the road from the beach, and is small and quiet! It's quite basic accommodation, but is a nice step sideways from that early-twenties backpacker madness we all so hazily remember.

May we all go forth and holiday!
