our holidays

As you can see from the pictures above, Sam and I had a great time holidaying at the Blue Mountains.

Staying at Leura was so relaxing. We rented a gorgeous little cottage near the main street in Leura and our five days consisted of reading Harry Potter 7 (yes to each other, I can’t decide if that makes us incredibly sweet or incredibly sad), drinking red wine at night by the toasty heater, going for walks and browsing Leura shops. Every morning we went to a fantastic café in Katoomba called Fresh to drink espresso and read the papers. The coffee there is great – woody and caramel tasting – and we made sure it was Free Trade too!

It was great to go away for a few days and now we feel energised for the rest of the year. Hopefully that will mean more thoughtful posts at thefountainside as well!
