Well here we are finally on holiday, our first since Olive came into the world. I've got a spare 15 minutes while hubby is down at the supermarket getting supplies for the week and a glass of wine so thought I would take that time to update my blog (which I've been threatening to do all week).
The main reason behind our holiday is to celebrate my father in laws 60th birthday (belated) so we have the whole family with us - all in different suites of course! We decided on Palm Cove just out of Cairns as none of us had ever visited before.
As many of you know planning a holiday with a 1 year old is not that easy so we decided to stay in an apartment style accommodation rather than a hotel so we can make it as homely as possible and have access to a kitchen to prepare food for Olive easily and have enough space for her to play. We have stayed in a few Peppers before and so we decided on the Peppers Beach Club & Spa.
Now that I'm here I am really happy with our choice. The apartment is really well set out and Peppers have provided everything we asked for to make sure our stay is easy - a cot and a high chair. We got a 2 bedroom so Olive would have her own room and we can keep to her sleep schedule. I put her down about an hour ago and she's sleeping soundly - fingers crossed it lasts all night.
So all is well after the first few hours and the weather outlook is looking good for the week (aside from a few showers but this is the tropics!) so here's to a great holiday, relaxing week and of course happy birthday Gaz
Cheers
