My husband had a conference in New Zealand so we decided to make the most of it and join him for a week getaway. The first couple of days we explored Wellington, then we hired a car and drove to Hawkes Bay, Lake Taupo, Rotorua, Hamilton and finished up in Auckland. We did the trip over 8 days so it was pretty rushed, but we managed to squeeze lots in.</div>

<div>
Here is a list of what we got up to while visiting New Zealand.</div>

<div>
<b><u>WELLINGTON</u></b><br />
The city itself is very pretty and lovely to wander around. The architecture is amazing and its just a cute little city to explore.<br />

<div>
<b>TO STAY</b></div>
<div>
Lots of places were booked out by the time I booked my accommodation for Wellington. But I managed to find a Premier Twin Suite available at <a href="http://www.boltonhotel.co.nz/">The Bolton hotel</a>. The hotel is a boutique hotel close to most of the attractions. It also had an apartment with two queen beds which ticked all our boxes. Having a kitchen was also an added bonus. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Te Papa</b></div>
<div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
The First day we visited <a href="http://www.tepapa.govt.nz/">Te Papa Museum</a> in Wellington. Both the girls loved it and it was relaxing for us as well. The highlight was the Giant Squid that is on display and Ava also surprising liked the Earth Quake house simulator. She asked to go in about three times! There are lots of interactive things for kids to do and a great way to discover more about New Zealand and its culture. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Wellington Botanic Garden</b></div>
<div>
There is lots to see in the gardens. We were lucky enough to visit when all the roses were blooming in the rose garden so we spent most of our time there. Ava especially loved looking at all the different colours and varieties of rose. We even found a purple rose (her favourite colour) which I didn't even know existed. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DRINK</b></div>
<div>
If you love good coffee like us Melbournians, then <a href="https://www.zomato.com/wellington/memphis-belle-te-aro-wellington-city"><b>Memphis Belle</b></a> made a great Coffee. The girls also enjoyed their Fluffies (NZ word for Babyccino). Although apparently there are lots of great places to choose from in Wellington. You can find some more <a href="https://www.broadsheet.com.au/sydney/food-and-drink/article/wellingtons-coffee-culture">here</a>. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT</b></div>
<div>
After a long day of travel we decided to wander to find some dinner. With two tired cranky kids in toe we stumbled across the <a href="http://www.crabshack.co.nz/"><b>The Crab Shack.</b> </a> The food was delicious and well worth the visit. I would love to go again and try some more items on their menu. They also had a great kids menu which was a bonus. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><u>GREYTOWN</u></b><br />
On way to Napier we stopped for lunch in Greytown. It was a cute little town with lots of shops to wander through. We ate lunch at <a href="http://foodforestorganics.co.nz/">Food Forest Organics</a> and it was one of the best meals from the trip.<br />

<b><u>NAPIER</u></b><br />
Napier is a seaside town know for its Art Deco buildings. The town and surroundings were very pretty and the region is surrounded by wineries and lots of farms with great local produce. There are plenty of places to stop and buy fruit on the side of the road. We stocked up on lots of Strawberries, Blueberries and Cherries while we were there. The beach however looked a bit rocky and ruff for the kids so we didn't bother spending any time there.<br />

<b>TO STAY</b></div>
<div>
We stayed at <a href="http://navigatenapier.co.nz/">Navigate Seaside Accomodation</a>. It was right on the water and some of the rooms have a lovely view of the bay. The hotel is modern and clean and we were happy with the rooms.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Ta Mata Peak</b></div>
<div>
This was seriously amazing. I actually didn't know anything about the peak before driving up, so it was a nice surprise once we reached the top. Definitely worth the visit!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT </b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Hawkes Bay Farmers Market</b></div>
<div>
Held every Sunday the market has stalls full of local produce. You can find anything from fresh Fruit and Vegetables as well as Cheese, Wine, Chocolate, Coffee and so on.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>Silky Oak Chocolate Factory</b></div>
<div>
We only stopped <a href="http://silkyoakchocs.co.nz/">here</a> quickly to grab some yummy Chocolate, but there is also a museum you can explore if you wish.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div>
<b><u>LAKE TAUPO</u></b><br />
Lake Taupo is a lake side town with beautiful mountains surrounding it. Unfortunately we only had one day here. But there are lots of things to do, especially if you are into the outdoors and adventure sports. </div>

<div>
<b>TO STAY</b></div>
<div>
We stayed at The <a href="http://www3.hilton.com/en/hotels/new-zealand/hilton-lake-taupo-AKLLTHI/index.html">Hilton</a>. It was one of our favourite places to stay the entire trip. We got a One bedroom king apartment. The apartment was massive and had a beautiful view of the lake. Unfortunately we didn't have time to use the pool but it looked like a great place to hangout with the kids if we had more time. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>Huka falls</b></div>
<div>
The falls were seriously stunning. Not the biggest falls I have ever seen, but still worth stopping to see. There are also lots of great walks that you can go on around this area. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT</b></div>
<div>
We actually got groceries at <span style="background-color: white; color: #141823; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17.94px;">PAK'nSAVE</span> and used the kitchen in our apartment at the hotel. So unfortunately I don't have any recommendations for places to eat.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b><u>ROTORUA</u></b><br />
Rotorua is know for its geothermal activity and its Maori culture. However, like lots of New Zealand there is also heaps adventure activities to do like Zorbing, adventure parks and a Skyline Gondola. If we had more time we would have explored a little more.</div>

<div>
<b>TO STAY</b></div>
<div>
We stayed at <a href="https://regentrotorua.co.nz/">Regent of Rotorua Botique Hotel & Spa</a>. This was in town and close to everything. The rooms were nice and clean and Ava loved the pool and Thermal spa. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
Because we only had one day we decided to go to <a href="http://www.tepuia.com/">Te Puia</a>. Te Puia is home to Maori arts and crafts institute and the famous Pohutu Geyser. We also purchased tickets to watch a Maori show and the girls really loved it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
NOTE: I actually wish we went to Wai-O-Tapu Thermal Wonderland as well. It looked like it had more to see than Te Puia. But we will have to save that for next time. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT</b></div>
<div>
Our hotel was right down the Street from<a href="http://www.rotoruanz.com/eatstreat/"> Eat Street</a> where there are lots of restaurants to choose from.</div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b><u>HAMILTON</u></b></div>
<div>
We picked Hamilton as a half way point between Rotorua and Auckland. We also really wanted to go to Waitomo Glowworm Caves which are an hour drive from Hamilton. Although we didn't have time I have heard the Botanical Gardens in Hamilton are really nice as well.</div>

<b>TO STAY</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
We stayed at the<a href="http://www.novotel.com/gb/hotel-2159-novotel-hamilton-tainui/index.shtml"> Novotel Hamilton Tainui</a>. The Room was simple and clean. Nothing fancy but good for one nights stay.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The<a href="http://www.waitomo.com/"> Waitomo Caves</a> have several tour options with different activities to do there. We picked the Glowworm cave tour and it was the highlight of our trip. Firstly we got a tour of the caves and then we hopped on a boat and got to see the beautiful glowworms. It was seriously amazing and well worth the visit.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT</b></div>
</div>
<div>
We ate at the hotel which was fine, nothing exciting really. They did have a good kids menu and a children's play area in the restaurant which was nice.<br />

I am going to be brief with the Auckland part of the trip because we were only there for one night before our flight home.<br />

<b>TO STAY</b></div>
<div>
Skycity is a Casino in Auckland and we stayed in the hotel part of the Casino. <a href="https://www.skycityauckland.co.nz/hotels/skycity-grand/"><b>Skycity Grand Hotel</b></a></div>
<div>
was actually a really nice hotel and we especially loved their in room breakfast. The hotel itself is right in the centre of Auckland which is far away from the Airport, but we wanted to see a little bit of Auckland so picked this hotel.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>TO DO</b></div>
<div>
We didn't have time to do much during our stay so we just wandered through the city. </div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b>TO EAT</b></div>
</div>
<div>
We ate at<b> <a href="https://www.skycityauckland.co.nz/restaurants/jade-dragon-express/">Jade Dragon Express</a>. </b>We didn't feel like venturing to far from the hotel for dinner so we ate at a restaurant in the hotel. The food was nice and was family friendly. </div>

It is not very often that I come across a home that I wouldn't change something about it. Even if it is just something like the paint colour. But <a href="http://christianrice.com/projects/alameda/#.VdUkyEKqqko" target="_blank">this</a> home designed by <a href="http://christianrice.com/" target="_blank">Christian Rice</a> is seriously my dream home. There is nothing I would change. I am very much a neutral girl so as you can imagine I am a massive fan of white simple interiors. I love the mixture of traditional features that give the house character. But it also has modern elements that make the space functional, like these amazing sliding doors out to the backyard.<br />

The front porch is so adorable with the swing chair and rocking chairs. To me that makes for a perfect family home.<br />

The living area is open plan but still cozy and inviting. I love rooms that look good and are also functional family spaces. There is lots of natural light that comes into this space from all angles. With all those windows you would almost feel like you are connected to the outside space all year round.<br />

The bedroom is so simple and serene. The high ceilings make the space feel open and I also love how light filled it is.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Recently I came across the work of <a href="http://www.sophiepatersoninteriors.com/" target="_blank">Sophie Paterson</a> and instantly fell in love. I must admit I actually have a little bit of a designer crush. She is based in Surrey, England and her work is sophisticated, but also very comfortable. Sophie is amazing at creating layers in each room that add a feeling of warmth and a sense of luxury. She uses things like wallpaper, and moody paint colours, different textured fabrics like velvet and linen and finishes like marble. Every space feels complete. She also knows how to accessorise a room to make the space feel more personalised. Overall her interiors have a sense of glamour about them. Below is one of her projects in Spain. Can you imagine spending the night in this gorgeous Villa. It is seriously amazing.</div>

As a mum you are always trying to find new ways to keep your little ones entertained. As Ava gets older she is slowly growing out of a lot of her toys and wanting more adventurous and imaginative things to play with. I love to try and buy things that will last and she wont grow out of to quickly. So I did a little research and thought a Teepee would be perfect.<br />
<br />
<span style="text-align: center;">After looking online I found </span><a href="http://www.mocka.com.au/teepees.html" style="text-align: center;">this one</a><span style="text-align: center;"> from Mocha. I wanted something that was neutral and didn't look too overwhelming in Ava's room with all of her toys and so on. Kids tend to gather quite a lot of bright stuff over time, so keeping things simple really helps. </span>Yahnayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00997678459443809512noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4597416148738653296.post-73607517139070877372014-04-10T07:45:00.001+10:002015-12-21T12:42:34.390+11:00MOST EXPENSIVE HAMPTON SUMMER RENTAL<div style="text-align: center;">

We finally have the keys to our new house and we have the painters in making changes. Now all I have to do is pull the furnishings together. We bought this dining table on the weekend but have not managed to find chairs to go. Here are some that I am thinking of. I would love to hear what you guys think. Any faves?</div>

We recently sold our current house and I am so excited that I am counting down the days until we move. Although I hate moving because of all the packing an unpacking it also feels like a fresh start. This year has been so hectic that it will be nice to play house and be re inspired again. I am hoping to start blogging more regularly and document the design process as we get settled in. First up we want to re paint, but we will also be buying some new bits and pieces as we go so stay tuned!</div>

Early this Summer my husband and I were in the bridal party of our best friends wedding. Their wedding was seriously gorgeous. So gorgeous that is has been featured on the massively popular wedding blog <a href="http://www.stylemepretty.com/2013/05/07/melbourne-wedding-from-stewart-leishman/">Style Me Pretty</a>. Just looking through the pictures brings back wonderful memories of how magical the day was. </div>

With every wedding there is so much planning envolved and trying to keep to a budget is one of the hardest parts. Anna did an amazing job at pulling together every little detail to create a picture perfect wedding and a great atmosphere for all the guest invited. I am super excited to share a sneak peak of their special day. </div>

I am a massive fan of Giuliana & Bill Rancic's reality show on the Style Network. Since the beginning of the season I have been dying to see the final reveal of their gorgeous Brentwood home designed by <a href="http://www.lonnipauldesign.com/">Lonni Paul</a>. How adorable is baby Duke's nursery!</div>

I love how the room is stylish but still has a childlike feel to the room. By adding little nautical features like the rope lamps, paddles on the wall and boat frame to the ceiling it makes the room fun without being over the top and tacky.</div>

I can't believe it is that time of year again. Wow how this year has flown. I think I say that every year, but it has been especially quick this year. Time to put up the Christmas tree I suppose. Last year I decorated my tree in Gold and Silver so to follow the theme through I have opted for Gold and silver for my table decoration as well. </div>

Now that Ava has started to eat solids I will need to pack her lunch for when we are out and about. I wanted to find something that would keep things cool and fresh, especially with summer just around the corner. I found this great freezer bag that comes with a patented eco-gel permanently built in to the liner. It is also PVC/lead free, non-toxic, earth safe and folds compactly in to the freezer for storage. For an added bonus they come in heaps of great designs that can be found <a href="http://packitcool.com/">here. </a><br />

When babies are little and learning to walk it is important that they have soft sole shoes. But if you are anything like me, you want them to be stylish too. These shoes are both practical and stylish. How precious are they. They are handcrafted in New Zealand by <a href="http://www.lousshoes.co.nz/">Lou's Shoes</a>. You can check out more of her fabulous creations here.<br />

I feel like I am playing catch up as I have wanted to share these pictures with you for a while now. One of the places we visited on our recent trip was Dubai. It was so amazing. There is no other city like it that I have been to. You would never imagine all of this stuff in the middle of a desert Far out it is hot there. Granted we visited in the middle of their summer but I am pretty sure it is warm all year round. It is such a nice place to visit I thought I would share.</div>

While we were in Barcelona we stayed at <a href="http://www.sixtyfourapartments.com/?lang=en">Apartments Sixty Four.</a> It was right on the Passeig de Gracia one of the most stunning and bustling streets in Barcelona. Apart from its perfect location it was also a great place to stay. It came equipped with its own kitchen and separate bathrooms and living areas. Which was perfect because we were staying with my husbands father so we all had our own space. </div>

The apartment was designed and styled really well. I was actually quite surprised that it looked better than the pictures on their website. Although my pictures do not do the apartment justice, hopefully you can get an idea of what it was like. </div>

For those who follow my Instagram you will already know I have been travelling for the last 6 weeks. While I was away I thought I would be posting daily but I found it almost impossible because I was out all day and then back late at night. Now that I am back home I finally have the time to share my journey with you all. As expected I took way too many pictures, but I tried to narrow it down as much as I could. Here are some of my favorite things about Barcelona.</div>

You may have noticed that we have been making a few changes around here. Ava has been hard at work updating our blog design. Very clever baby!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or should I say Shari from <a href="http://www.littlebluedeer.com/">Little Blue Deer</a> did an amazing job updating my blog for me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thanks Shari. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope everyone enjoys my new design as much as I do.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
As promised I wanted to share our stay at the <a href="http://www.wynnlasvegas.com/">Wynn Las Vegas</a>. My husband has conferences in Vegas every year so I think it was about the sixth time we stayed at the Wynn. We like this hotel because it is a little more relaxing than some of the other hotels on the strip. It is away from the hustle and bustle and is also very bright and luxurious (unlike some of the other dark and dingy casinos in Vegas). Normally we stay in a standard King room, but this time we were lucky to be upgraded to a Salon suite! It was seriously amazing. With 1,950 square feet of living space we certainly didn't know what to do with ourselves. </div>

The room is very typical vegas style accommodation. They tend to do things on a grand scale in Vegas. Normally I find the accommodation in some of the other hotels to be a little OTT. Yet the Wynn has managed to put together a suite that is comfortable and luxurious. </div>

I crept out of bed this morning while bubba is still sleeping so that I could do a quick post. I have been crazy busy lately with all of this travelling we have been doing. First stop was Los Angeles. We stayed at the Viceroy in Santa Monica which was gorgeous. I wanted to do a more detailed post on the hotel but I did not get around to taking many pictures. My husband managed to snap a few of the room we stayed in but the pictures are not the best quality. Sorry! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway I thought I would still share my thoughts on the experience and add some eye candy of what the hotel really looks like. </div>

<span style="background-color: white;">We stayed in the beach view king room that overlooked the Santa Monica beach. It was nice to wake up and look outside at the water, but to be honest we were out most of the day so we didn't get to enjoy it that much. </span></div>

The room was as I expected it to be from the pictures on their website. Although it had a cold atmosphere. Its hard to explain why, I think it might be because the green looks really great in professional pictures but in real life it is not really a great mood lifter for me. </div>

The lobby area and pool was actually the best part of the hotel. It was devine and unlike the room it had a good feel to it. Above is the front reception area. The hardwood floors were a great feature and the green worked well in the lobby area for some reason. The space is more light and open so it probably helps. I also really loved the gallery wall of mirrors. Throughout the hotel there are lots of cute little quirky touches that make the hotel very adorable. Overall we loved the hotel and the staff were also very friendly.</div>
