Well it has been a while since I have writen anything on my blog but then since my last entry myself and Katharine have had a beautiful daughter and havnt really had chance to go anywhere until now. At 7 months we thought it would be a good time to trial a short break with our daughter and organise a city break which wasnt too far away on a flight. We are also in training for a marathon later in may so we wanted to find somewhere we could incorporate our run. We decided to head to Prague and also entered the Hervis Prague Half Marathon as well. We flew in to Prague on the 29th March with Jet2.com, last time i book a flight with them as we got stung on top of our booking ... read more

I am writing this blog seperately to the main honeymoon blog as it was the most amazing adventure of my life with a brilliant group of people and something i will not forget as long as I live for many reasons which i will try to put across by writing this entry. Day 1 of Trek We Arrived at The Hotel Miramar at 8:30am feeling slightly nervous about being in the jungle for 5 days, the chap who runs the Mirimar Backpackers is a really nice fella and like our host at the casa familiar made you instantly feel you have nothing to worry about. We paid the 450,000 Pesos each which worked out about $250 US Each. The Hostal acts as an agent to Guias Y Baquianos Tour and although there are others such as ... read more

6th July and a well deserved week to the beautiful Village of Sivota in Mainland Greece. Kat myself and Kats mum ( mother in law to be ) took a flight to the island of corfu where we then took a ferry to Igoumenitsa and then a short taxi drive to Sivota. Sivota was mainly a small fishing village but over the years has increased in popularity with the sailing community and bears host to a large array of yachts and motorboats. We stayed in the Blue Coast apartments which looked directly over the harbour and is run by Angie and Mert. The food there is great so even if you didnt stay there its well worth a visit. After our 2 days of doing nothing but relaxing and laying on the beach we hired a ... read more

It had been dumping snow in the alps for the last 3 weeks and Avoriaz was boasting 2m of snow on the upper slopes and the resort hadnt even opened which was looking like we had got lucky with a pre Christmas ski trip of epic proportions!

Now as neither me or Kat are big fans of the package holiday it was still hard to pass up a bargain trip staying at the Shangri La Al Jissah al Waha resort just outside Muscat in Oman. why not, everyone deserves a bit of luxury now and again! The Sultanate of Oman is quite frankly stunning consisting of mainly desert, mountains and secluded perfect beaches combined with lush Wadi's dotted about the countryside. It is one of the only countries I have been to that overwhelmed me with the passion people have for where they live. As a visitor to the country we were made very welcome and everyone was exceptionally polite and could'nt do enough for you. Oman is situated on the Southeast corner of the Arabian Peninsula bordering with Saudi Arabia, United Arab ... read more
