Back in 10

In between the whirl of our cluttered day-to-days, the boy and I have been counting down the seconds to a much needed getaway. Destination? Tasmania. Most people around my neck of the woods are choosing to escape these wintry chills, but not us. Nope. We've decided there would be nothing better than a road trip whacked right in the thick of some bitterly cold days.

Bonus is, the boy is known to me as all things 'pro' when it comes to the outdoors. Goes without saying he'll take charge in the driver's seat (I'm more accustomed to lying on the beach) and guide us up and around what I'm told to be some of the most picturesque roads I'll see. I, on the other hand, have the all important task of booking tables for two in what I've heard to be a seriously booming foodie scene. Stay tuned.

So, with no time to spare, we're set and ready to load these next few days with all the good stuff - nibbles and sips of some of the best produce on show, road-trip singalongs (unfortunately I can't sing to save myself) and the chance to simply switch off from our minute by minute to-do's. Heavenly. See you in 10 days!

I'd love to hear of your latest or soon approaching getaway! How'd it go?
