Sofitel Maeva Beach Pool

This was taken about 6am when we were having breakfast. The pool and surroundings looked lush.

This is the hotel from the pool.

Sofitel Maeva Beach Lobby

This was the lobby area it's was pretty funky. I really like the paper/plastic long shades that woobled with the breeze. It wall all open air.

Papeete Sofitel

After our 7hr 50min plane ride from Sydney we stayed overnight at the Sofitel Mavea Beach in Papeete, Tahiti. It was a really nice hotel and this is a photo looking out over the pool area on the 6th floor balcony.

We didn't really have a good sleep as the local's were partaaaaaying until about 3am.

Ok.. a sampler. This was taken on the second day of our holiday from our own private plunge pool. Ahhhh... heaven

Tahiti

Me and Andi spent the last 7 nights in beautiful Moorea and Papeete. It was a magical holiday - pure relaxation. We got back today and are both a bit jet-lagged as you cross the international dateline.

We took some great photos and got a DVD of us snorkling with the sharks and patting the stingrays. :)

I wish I was still over in 32 degree weather instead of cold 17 degrees. I hope we can return oneday and try Bora Bora maybe on a stopover to the US or Japan or maybe just another relax holiday.

You know those yellow envelopes that come in the post box full of eyebrow trimmers and thomas the tank wall clocks... well 2 years ago I saw some really cute return address labels for xmas. I went to their website and that had all this crazy shit that was for free but the killer was postage. Anyhow it's still pretty cheap and it's sent from Sweden but some of the stuff is average some is OK. I found the quality to be good. So if you are after cards, magnets or return adress labels check it out.

DJ Molly Donuts dog is so cute and I haven't seen her for ages. Al said she's been clipped short as she's living with Donut's parents on the farm. Al took this photo at lipscombe lader about 2 years ago. My blog wouldn't be complete with out a picture of Molly or as Pratty calls her stunted lassie.

Haven't posted this week so here is a picture of Ollie. It's so hard to take photos of a black cat. Not upto much this Anzac Day was going go out for lunch but couldn't be bothered. I've done the house work and was going to play some WoW but I think I might surf the net and work on the house scrap book. Two days of work and then its the weekend.... haven't got too many plans as yet I know there is a school fair at Kingston and they have ollie bollen and croquets .. YUM..

Brrr.... Pete & Andi swiming from the beach to the boat. They were very game to be doing this in Autum!

Taylor Family Boating Day

A remote beach. A favourite of Pete's parents.

Taylor Family Boating Day

On Saturday we went on Pete's parents boat. We spent a good part of the day sailing and then stopped for some snacks and luck at a beach. The men went to shore while I stayed on the boat.

Ollie & the owl

I saw these motion sensor owls at socrates at xmas and didn't buy one because they were $$$. I happened to go past a month ago and they were 50% off (don't think they were a huge seller). Anyways it hoots and moves it's head when you walk past it. Ollie was a bit miffed by it. I think it's kinda cool with it's hairsprayed coif.

Block of Land...

Wooo hoo here is our block of land we signed for on
Thursday. :) The piccie is a bit dodgy as it was
a bad time of night. Such a nice view and can't
wait until we build. We will build in spring/summer
depending on finances and if we have some plans
ready.

My birthday haul. Got some nice pressies.. A CR dress like the one pictured. I wore it on friday with some black tights and a black turtle neck.
I also scored a black CR trench.
The girls at work got me some necklaces and a cute hello kitty mug and easter egg.
Today I got the pressie from Andi's parents a dark grey bird bath! :)
Have a great weekend.

My Birthday

Three sleeps until my birthday. I already know what I'm getting so it's not such a suprise. But i'll post what I get .. ;)

Daylight saving sux.. I hate it getting dark of a night it's horrid.

Hopefully I'll be posting some exciting news in the next couple of weeks.. !! But at the moment it's all Suuuuuuuuuuuushh..

Stella Baby

These are my scores from Target with the Stella launch. The pieces are really lovely quality. I didn't think I'd get caught up in the hype but once the Target website launched with some of the piccies I grabbed. (thanks Target)

I managed to score birdy silk top + matching scarf, woollen V grey sweater dress and a black top with a front tie.

:)

Hi

Haven't posted in awhile! :) I'll be getting back into it...

Went to the Stella Mcartney launch at Target yesterday. It wasn't as
crazy as other capital cities. Managed to score some nice pieces. I
didn't really dig the whole range though..

It was amazing to see building disapear in the smog. This was one of our last days and is the last photo of our amazing March holiday. :)  

The entrance to the zoological park. We got stuck in this park and it poured for like an hour.
