Sharing is caring!

Good Morning one and all, how are you? It’s another Monday morning but my one next week is going to be much more exciting as I will be in Oman! EEK.  However to keep me holiday focused before then I’ve been watching our Brittany video over and over again. Ww had such a fab time there at the end of August.  Let me know what you think!

This week Claire is hosting Monday Escapes over at Tin Box Traveller.

What have we been up to?

Over the last couple of weeks we have spent a wonderful week at a fab cottage in Wales with friends and family, we’ve enjoyed Halloween and also Bonfire night too!

On to Monday Escapes…

Monday Escapes is all about looking back at wonderful, happy travel memories and sharing them with others. It doesn’t have to be about a trip abroad or even be a written post. If you want to share your favourite snapshots – whether it’s a famous sight, scene, dramatic view or even a favourite family photo, then please feel free to link those up, too. Likewise, posts don’t have to be about holidays or weekends away, they can also include day trips, walks, attractions – any travel experience that you want to share.

The linky is run by Sarah from Extraordinary Chaos, Karen from Mini Travellers, Claire from Tin Box Traveller and Lisa from Travel Loving Family.

We are also absolutely delighted to link up with Lonely Planet to offer our number one favourite blog post of the fortnight either a destination guide, or a title from the Lonely Planet Kids range. (See T&C’s below). Just another great reason to link up with Monday Escapes!

What’s in it for you?

The number one thing is you’ll be sharing your fantastic posts with a like-minded community and grabbing some travel inspiration for yourself. As a bonus you have a chance to have your blog post featured on all four, yes four of the hosts’ blogs each fortnight, introducing your blog to even more people. How great is that?! Our number one favourite post of the fortnight will also win a Lonely Planet destination guide, or a title from the Lonely Planet Kids range. How great is that?! (*T&C’s – The chosen Lonely Planet book must be in English and can only be sent to bloggers living within Europe).

Our favourite posts from last time

 This post by Marie at Austrian Travel Barbie really made Sarah want to go back to Mexico and explore. Last time she visited she had a toddler in tow were limited was to what they could do.

Sarah also adored this post from Jenny and Jason at TraveLynn Family about visiting the Taj Mahal. It is a realistic account with some great tips and gorgeous photos.

Karen was fascinated by this post by the Wandermust Family about their time in Qatar and how many beautiful places there are.

Karen really respects the planning that went into this trip by Dan and Celine at Baby Can Travel and the ability to continue doing what they love, ‘hiking’, with the little ones in tow, or on their backs!
