When Daily Deals Go Bad

Daily Deals are huge right now all around the world. Groupon, Living Social, KGB Deals, Wahanda, Keynoir, and Wowcher are a handful of the ones out there. They offer great deals on things from dinner and drinks to movie tickets.  I’ve purchased a lot from different sites and always had good experiences until last week. [...]

AC La Linea

In case you are catching up on our trip: Gibraltar Climbing the Rock Marbella, Spain We stayed at AC La Linea.  It’s a chain of hotels throughout Spain, Portugal and Italy.  The hotel itself was very nice, well priced and had a free mini bar. Sorry about the messy photos.  I couldn’t get a photo [...]

5 Hours In Marbella, Spain

Day 1 of vacation Day 2 of vacation Day 3 was spent in Marbella, Spain.  It was a 1.5 hour bus ride up the coast. I knew it was a beach town and it wasn’t going to be hot enough to lay out but we figured we might as well explore since we were close [...]

Climbing The Rock

You can read about our first day in Gibraltar here. The best way to see all of the Rock of Gibraltar is to take the cable car up to the top and then explore it on foot.  At the base of the rock there are a ton of “tour guides/taxi drivers” trying to persuade you to take [...]

Exploring London

It’s quite fitting that she has just started her own company called……. London In A Day [...]

New Zealand Day In London

Yesterday I left the flat to run errands and was surprised to see a mob of drunk people in costumes. Just realized there aren’t any people in costumes in this photo but just wait for the other photos. I’m not lying. I asked one of the people dressed up as a cow what was going [...]

Brick Lane Market

Once we got to the point where we should have made a right we realized that we were in the right spot. Graffiti everywhere, all different types of food vendors and antiques lined up neatly along the street. Inside an old brewery there were numerous food, jewelry, and clothing stands.  All by local artists which is [...]

Brick Lane

On our way to Brick Lane we walked along Fournier Street and it was just so cute. We made a right onto Brick Lane and weren’t that impressed at first.  We just saw a ton of restaurants and not that many people. We thought it was supposed to be a fun market with vendors lining the streets. [...]

American TV

American TV Is amazing.  I don’t care if people say it’s trashy or wrong.  I love it.  Having been in the UK for 4 months now I’m really missing Bravo, Food Network, Cooking, ABC, NBC, TLC, and Style.  The list could go on and on and on. I haven’t even watched OWN yet! Well we [...]
