Easter round up.

So once again here I am apologising for being a little absent! I'm not sure why as I don't particularly have a schedule for my blog, it's just something I do as a bobbie. Yet I feel like I owe you guys when you follow me to keep posting regularly! So I'm very sorry!

Firstly it was the Easter holidays. Where I work in a primary school this meant two weeks off .. wooohoo!! It was great, I just relaxed most of the time! My friends came down from the mainland and we all met up which was lovely as we haven't been together for so long. It seems they all come to the island at different times but luckily they were all down for Easter. I spent some time with family also, looking after my little cousins, which was great! Plus a picnic, digging, nights out and lots of time shopping!!

Besides all the Easter holiday fun I've got my dissertation to do and the deadline is looming so I'm now starting to panic a little but I'll be so glad when it's all over as I'm graduating this year!!

Here are some snaps I took of what I've been getting up to!

Hope you all enjoyed the easter break!!

Fun & Frolics in Belgium!

During half term my friend Alex and I took a trip to Belgium!! We wanted to go out and see our friend Olga who is out there for work experience. We stayed for 3 nights as we couldn't really afford much more... it was a little expensive as we both have to go during half term due to working in a school!! The hotel we stayed in was in a fantastic location and was really simplistic and modern, so great value for money! Olga took us to lots of nice places, we had some delicious meals and tasty treats as well as spending some evenings in a few bars.... I even got up to sing karaoke in an Irish bar.... *cringe*!! Alex and I didn't really expect much from Belgium to begin with as Olga hadn't really sold it to us, but we were pleasantly surprised and had lots of fun!! :)

On our first night we has a delicious Thai, I had a Thai green curry which was amazing and came in this little contraption with a candle underneath, so authentic!!


 In Belgium they are VERY big bear drinkers and this didn't bode well for me as I hate beer, I'm so fussy with my alcohol. Instead I settled for a Cecemel, which is basically chocolate milk, or hot chocolate if you have it warm like I did. It was awesome!!


 Amazingly tasty savoury waffles!!

We visited the parliamentarium and a big cathedral!!


  
And on Our last night we went to an Irish bar and had a cheeky bit of Karaoke!! :)
