A couple of weeks ago I told you all about the hotel we stayed at in Crete, Elounda Blu (you can read my full post here). This week I’m going to be showing you some of the things we got up to whilst there.

Elounda Blu – a cretan haven
Last year, we were incredibly fortunate to go on several holidays, the common theme however, being that they were all very busy where we were on our feet exploring most of the time. I’m certainly not complaining by any means but this year, we decided that one long holiday where we could spend hours stretching out in the sun was exactly what we needed. For a change, we thought we would wait as long as possible to book to try and get a better price. I managed to wait until April (which is very good for a meticulous planner such as myself) when we booked 10 days in June to go to the beautiful Crete.

Glamping with Jollydays
You may remember last year I fell completely in love with North Star Club (read here). After we left, as with all good places we tend to visit, it remained on my mind and when I was invited to North Star Club’s sister camp, Jollydays, I didn’t hesitate in jumping at the chance and a date was booked in for May.

A LONG WEEKEND WITH CHEDDAR WOODS RESORT & SPA
One of my favourite ever blog posts I’ve written (and actually one of my most popular) is my review of the Beach Cove Coastal Retreat. So when I was invited to stay at one one of Beach Cove’s sister resorts, Cheddar Woods Resort and Spa, based in Cheddar in Somerset, I immediately knew I was in for a treat. So on the weekend of the 24th, we packed up the car and Luna before embarking on the three and a half hour drive to Somerset. Rather luckily, our visit just so happened to take place on one of the nicest weekends weather-wise that we had enjoyed all year with a cloudless sky and beaming sun.

LONDON PHOTO DIARY
I don’t actually go to many concerts. Like anyone I love music but I’m not too fussed about seeing many people live (though y’know, Ed Sheeran if you fancy throwing some tickets my way…). What I do try to do is see my favourite comedians when they go on tour. I bloody love spending a couple of hours in a room full of laughing people, you know that proper deep belly laughs where you even cry a little. Yeah. That. So back in 2015 when Matt and I discovered one of our favourite comedians Russell Howard was going on tour in 2017 (yep, you have to book that far in advance!), we knew we had to book tickets. March 2017 was our date and the Royal Albert Hall was our venue of choice.
Flash forward two years and as a Christmas present, Matt’s parents kindly supplied us with a hotel stay for the night of the show so we could make a weekend of our trip to London. I love London but rarely get to enjoy it for longer than a day so for the last few weeks I’d plotted where I wanted to go and what I wanted to buy. To conclude this rather large introduction, this week’s post is a photo diary all about our weekend in London!
