Last full day in London
It was our last full day in London, and we had a few things left on our bucket list. We headed out first for a river taxi. They have Uber river taxis with stops, as well as 2 hour river cruises. We picked the taxi and took it from Tower Hill to Embankment, which was…

Enjoying family in London
Sorry it’s been a few days since I posted. We’ve been in London, and really enjoying family time and exploring the city. The boys love it here, really enjoy meeting their cousins, and seem to really like London. I feel like I’m rediscovering it after so many years, and it is truly such a lovely…

Day 2 in London
Amazingly, we all slept pretty well for a first night in a new time zone—the kids a bit better than me, but not bad at all! I was ready to get a run in first thing as it had been 2 days, so I hit the road around 6am for an easy 3 miler. Below…

Happily exhausted in London
It was a looong almost 24 hours of travel, but we made it to London at 530am today. Singapore airlines has got to be the most incredible airline I’ve ever flown. Our 50 minute transit time in Singapore was easily accomplished, they let us bypass the line as a family with young kids to board,…

Singapore/London bound
We are currently at the Bali airport, waiting for our flight, which leaves in 1.5 hours. I love that my boys still look out the window like this at ages 7 and 10. The kids spent some time with our nanny this morning, giving me time to exercise and pack. Then we did foot massages…

Last full day in Bali
We leave tomorrow night at 8pm, so I don’t know if I should call this the last full day in Bali. But I will, haha! We are at the end of 8 weeks of traveling, as a single parent, with 2 high energy and wild boys, and I was definitely feeling the mental burnout of…

Let’s talk packing for a long trip
By the time we come back, we’ll have been away for 9 weeks. I thought it might be fun to talk about packing, especially for the things I brought that didn’t get used and what I wish I had brought more of. First, to start, we had a large suitcase, medium suitcase, carryon on size…

Liking Sanur
Today is going to be a short post. It was a good day. I’ve been tired from poor sleep for a few days so I swam and did yoga today and let the nanny leave early as I hung out with my kids at a restaurant while they played pool. I am liking Sanur way…

A mamá Day!
Today was truly a day when I checked out (as much as possible) from parenting and took some much needed me-time. We had our nanny from 7am to 2pm. We showed her around the hotel when she arrived and she had breakfast with the kids while I headed excitedly to the beach to run. I…

Ubud to Sanur transfer
I managed to get up at 6am today and brave the roads/sidewalk for my first run outside the 0.05 mile walkway outside our villa. I needed to really move my body without slowing down or turning around every few seconds. I went about 0.2 miles before I turned around, but hey, that felt amazing! We…
