Lil Stewie

We woke up completely refreshed with sore necks from crappy pillows but had a great breakie of croissants, pain au chocolat and muesli then headed out in the sunshine to explore Brussels city a lil! We were really starting to get our French on by this point it was great! Little did I even know, French was the official language spoken in Brussels! I just assumed belgianese! J Anyway, we made our way to the city and walked to a square which we assume was the main square but hard to know. All my patients were telling me about this square which I had to visit but personally i didn’t think it was that impressive! Lots of scaffolding around it which was disappointing but we were in the sun so didn’t matter. We kept seeing all ... read more

We woke up today to the sound of rain and thought temporarily we were back in Edinburgh!! Disappointed but pleased wed done most of the exploring yesterday we headed down for breakie again which was same as the day before and just as nice. We then found out about shopping in Budapest and found there was a big mall relatively close to our hotel. So, we went in search firstly with our hood up for a new umbrella as Mellow Yellow had a sad unfortunate death in Copenhagen a few weekends ago L Umbrella above us we headed to the mall and did a spot of shopping. Well be did! Shirt, jeans and shorts – good effort! I didn’t buy anything but was really cheap shopping! Decided it was time for a baileys coffee (which seems ... read more

Not so early this am we boarded our plane to London to get to Budapest. Thankfully we only had a 1 hour gap between flights rather than the 4 we had to copenhagen! Loaded up on some yummy bagels and smoothies, checked in with the family and then hopped on our plane to Budapest. We had no idea what to expect and hadnt done like any research into what there was to do but we'll sort it when we get there! We were basically just excited about some actual sun and warmth which we hadnt felt in a long time!! Just under 2 hours and we had landed and spent a while trying to figure out the currency and how much we should draw out! Taking a stab in the dark we ordered a shuttle as ... read more

We woke up to a rainy copenhagen today!! But we were super excited cos we had scoped out a really nice looking brunch place to go in a book one of my patients gave me! Meant to be the best cafe in copenhagen for brunch! So we got up, dressed and headed off to explore with mellow yellow (my dublin umbrella!) Ben with no help of myself found this cute lil cottage looking place with gorgeous water views- very very old but when we looked closer we saw that it was shut and there was a sign infront in danish. We had no idea what it said but we left with an idea that it said it was shut due to hygiene reasons! We were so gutted cos were so excited and really didnt have an ... read more

Last buffet breakie today! :( And as I got to the waffle maker I see that someone has made wayyyyy more of a mess than I did yest!! And the lil girl was there so i could point out that it wasnt just me that overdid the mixture! we enjoyed our last breakfast and then got dressed for our trip across to gozo for the day. We were gutted cos Karla had got us excited about going to Camino where the blue lagoon was but unfortunately cos it was so windy they werent sending boats across so we settled for a day in gozo and just looked at blue lagoon postcards!! We hopped on the ferry and omg it was so rockywith the wind. Apparantley it was force 8 out of 10! I felt really sick ... read more
