The beautiful 65 acres of Chiswick House & Gardens, have been illuminated for the Magical Lantern Festival for the second year running. The immersive trail through the lush gardens, by night is rather magnificent. The Magical Lantern Festival is a lovely collection of giant lanterns embracing art, heritage and culture, whilst celebrating the Chinese New Year of the Rooster. It’s rather exciting to “Explore The Silk Road,” with the lanterns representing the route of trade and culture from Europe to Ancient China.From London through Europe, Central Asia, Arabia, Egypt, Persia, India and Ancient China there’s over fifty larger than life lantern installations. There’s a sense of tranquillity, walking through the gardens on a crisp night. Traipsing through the mud, is well worth it for the impressive installations. The English heritage Grade I listed gardens are interspersed with water features, and the reflections onto the water are stunning. The recreated Forbidden City is by far the most impressive installation. It can get fairly busy, as crowds are flocking from all over, to get a look in at the west London display. There’s a sweet aroma of marshmallows being toasted as you get halfway through. And if you find you are able to resist temptation at the marshmallows, the hot churros […]
Iceland is renowned for fishing so it is a must to savour some of the fresh fish by the old harbour. The Reyjkavik Fish Restaurant is in the Old Harbour area. It’s a nautically themed and the breaded cod and chips are the gem on the menu. The batter was light and crispy and the meal itself hearty. The fish is freshly caught. Sometimes simple fish and chips is all you need. It’s quite casual and great for groups to relax, at the end of a day of exploration in Iceland.Fish Restaurant, Ingolfsstraeti 8, & Skolavoroustig 23, Reykjavik 101, Iceland
I distinctly remember the day I first heard about Hotel Chocolat and feeing excited there was a chocolate hotel. Until reality struck that it was in fact the name of a premium chocolate brand. Although delighted by their chocolate there was always a slight disappointment that the Hotel Chocolat was merely an illusion of my imagination for a number of years. That was until recently discovering there was in fact a Hotel Chocolat in St Lucia. The hotel I had dreamt about existing for years. Eat, breathe and sleep chocolate in the Caribbean. That’s my idea of bliss. So with many holiday destinations being picked on a whim of the cuisine I felt like having, this one was no different. I love chocolate so it’s almost non-sensicle to not at least go and try the chocolate experience I’d been searching for. After a stomach churning, windy ocean drive, up and down through rainforests and volcanos. Passing shabby huts on stilts, one arrives in chocolate paradise. Hotel Chocolat’s Boucan is like no other. The Rabot Estate cocoa plantation is set high in the rainforest with unprecedented, breathtaking views overlooking the pitons. The surrounding scenery is rather dramatic and picturesque. A boutique hotel with merely thirteen […]

Vegas is not for the faint hearted and no doubt some people may prefer to play in an online casino from the comfort of their home, this alternative has especially grown quickly during the last years and more and more people are choosing to gamble online. But for those of us who wants to taste the real thing, Vegas is really fabulously fun, with something for everyone, and there’s always a reason to go back. No matter how many times we visit Las Vegas, we leave feeling slightly awestruck. There’s something about the bright lights and buzz of the Vegas strip that always makes it an unforgettable experience. Caesars Palace is a maze of colonnades, shops, restaurants and casino. With ceilings painted with beautiful, blue skies, you can find yourself sitting by Rome’s Trevi Fountain, and losing track of time. Vegas is truly the city that never sleeps and it’s the ambient temperatures, with a feeling of being outside, that seems to do it. There’s something rather infectious about the ringing of the slot machines. As small crowds gather around the Roulette tables splashing the cash, one can’t help being drawn in and getting caught up in the excitement. Doubling our money […]
