Sledding Korketrekkeren Like A Boss
Friday 27th December 2019 We got up early and were so excited to do some sledging. This was such a last-minute decision (literally decided the night before) which made it even more exciting!

Vegas’ main strip is literally “Disney for adults” – it has plenty of adult attractions with everything seemingly made with purpose. We had the most amazing 3 nights and 4 days here.

3 DAYS IN SAN DIEGO – MY HEN DO CALIFORNIA ROAD TRIP (PART 2)
The second part of the Hen Do California Trip was 3 days in San Diego. I was super excited about this stop because the city is just amazing! It’s probably one of my favourite US cities now because of its beaches, parks, neighbourhoods, food and the general laid-back beach vibe. It’s got the typical skyscrapers that most…
