London : Paris Bound

I am off to London and Paris today for the next two weeks! I feel quite excited about my impending adventure, but anxious about leaving Poppy for that amount of time.

My best friend Bron, has been living in the UK (Guildford) for the past 6 years and I made a promise to visit her during her time abroad. Bron, Jerome and their family (Chester & Owen) are returning home to Australia at the end of the year.

I planned to go when I was pregnant, but the time wasn’t quite right, and then again last year with Poppy as a baby, but I was in ‘New Mum Mode’ and happy to be at home.  So after much agonising (‘Do I take Poppy?‘, ‘Do I go on my own?’) Nick was the driving force behind my trip this year and here I am…off on a big jet plane – on my own!

My trip just happens to coincide with the Olympics, which will be rather exciting and I am even having a solo sojourn to Paris for 4 days in early August.

Little Popsicle will be in good hands with her Daddy and even though I am anxious, I am super excited about experiencing London and The City of Light for the first time.

So, I hope to share my experiences via my blog, but my posts might be rather sporadic. Xx
