Visit Rita and her lovely shop full of little treasures, like jewellery, cushion, bags, and gift ware. Rita is a gorgeous woman with lots of enthusiasm, a great eye for detail and a knack for finding little gems for her clients.
There are 5 DaVia Designs currently in stock (plus a range of handbags) and I will be increasing this range when I get back from Europe in a couple of weeks.
While I am away I will be visiting Barcelona and the wonderful works of Antoni Gaudi. I can't wait. I have been looking forward to this trip for many years. So I hope to come back totally inspired. I will endeavor to up load photo's to this blog in net cafes but I won't give a guarantee to that as I have no idea how accessible these are where I am going.
I am starting to get a little nervous about how I will cope leaving my kids behind. Not for their sake really, they will be fine I am sure, they are very capable kids and my dad, my step-mum and sister will be around all the time. No, I am worried about how I am going to cope, I haven't been away from them for more than a couple of nights in 14 years. And when my son went on camp for 9 days last year I missed him like mad, and I had 2 kids still at home to keep me busy.
Still the food, wine and shoe shopping might distract me. Fingers crossed.

Davia this trip will be fantastic - long-service leave for you! When I was 11 my parents went on their first overseas trip - for two weeks. My sisters and I stayed with our cousins and had the greatest fun. Plus, there were presents at the end of it all! Of course, this was before the internet - we had a couple of postcards and that was it. You know the kids will be fine - they may miss you but they'll be well loved and cared for!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the encouragement and support Fiona. I just know it's gonna be great. It is also a bit like the honey moon we never had. When we got married we just couldn't afford an overseas trip. So we camped in a tent at Coffs Harbour on our way back to Queensland where we were living at the time. x :D
