Come fly with me....

Melissa over at The Loveliest Day has started a fab new series called Honeymoon Monday whereby she takes you on a journey through a couple's honeymoon. Perfect for getting a honeymooner's perspective on a destination - which often has quite different needs to your regular holiday right ;-) Like Melissa I'm passionate about travelling and whilst these days I don't get to do as much of it as in the past, a girl can dream right - and thankgod dreams are free cause today I'm planning quite the adventure. All vicariously of course, but as it's a special day for me (way too many candles to admit to!!) I thought it would be fun to dream up the perfect day if I could teleport myself! So come along for a ride with me....and let me know if you have any fun stops you'd like to add on the way.

First up I'd start with some early morning beach yoga somewhere on a fab beach... (ok so I'm not a yoga person YET but I so aspire to be so work with me here!)

Then I'd head to a hop over to Paris to a little French cafe for breakfast with the husband and a spot of people watching... (possibly a quick visit to Galeries Lafayette to choose my outfit for dinner and of course I'd have to swing by Ladurée to pick up some macaron's)

Next we're off to the Maldives for some spa and relaxation treatments, followed by a hour around the pool... (I just might start on the cocktails at this point)

For lunch I'd gather up the girls and have a leisurely meal at a rustic vineyard in Tuscany, sampling all the local fare...

To work off some of that local fare, I'd then take a gentle little hike up to the lakes around the Matterhorn in Switzerland (I'm in control of the seasons of course so it would be fall for this destination so just a sprinkling of snow on the mountains - I've sat in this very spot and it really does look just like this!)

Then I'm going to get my khaki's on and head to Etosha National Park in Namibia for a quick whirlwind safari trip and cuddle some baby elephants...

and because this is my dream day and it's a little bit longer than the norm I'm also going to squeeze in a bike ride or walk through these lovely fields in California (it's the Anne of Green Gables in me!), ending up with an antipasto picnic...

and to finish the evening off I'll be dining al fresco with the family...

So are you still with me (I think my passport may have been filled up!)? I hope you enjoyed this little whirlwind adventure. Where would you go for your dream day?
