Hey Jelly Beans. Today is my last day. I really really don't want to go home. I have had far to much fun over the last couple days and I don't want to leave it here. I feel I have much more to explore and see here. Oh well I guess that means Spain? I Will Be Back!! Today has been fantastic. For those of you who don't know me, I have a little sister who is obsessed with Bonsai trees. Well when eating breakfast I came across a little advert, advertising a bonsai tree centre which was just scream for me to go check it out. So off I went, and I wasn't disappointed!       For those of you who don't know what Bonsai trees are, they are miniature trees (shown above) which are popular gifts in the UK at the moment. The pictures above are just a few of the tree's that they have in this magical place. If you are interested in trees and small trees, this is the place for you to visit. I spent a good couple of hours looking around all the trees. They range...

Good Morning Jelly Beans. Hope all are well. I had the most fantastic nights sleep. That bed is sooo comfy. fresh fruit salad breakfast today which was mega filling. Anyway today I went to Puerto Banus Marina. One word. WOW!! The size of some of the boats (more cruise liner size) were amazing. There was one in particular that caught my eye. I would have paid to have a tour around it. Must have cost a few Million at least! I did realise though everywhere you turned there, you would see top of the range black and white cars pulled up along side the water edge. That's when I realised that this area was for the wealthier people of Spain. Still I was here to explore so the picture above was taken looking down the car park by the marina to the right of the picture.      As I was looking around the different size boats and there cars, I noticed just off this picture something bright blue shining in the water. Taking a closer look, I realised there was a shoal of fis...

Hey Jelly Beans. Well I'm here in Sunny Spain. Staying in the stunning Vincci Seleccion Estrella del Mar Hotel. I'm here for 3 nights so was expecting a certain standard to the hotel, as the location in Marbella has a reputation for having high standards. So far so good. Staff friendly and helpful, fresh orange juice waiting for me for when I arrived. The room has the most spectacular sea views and is so comfortable, stylish and clean. Out of all the hotels I have stayed in this one beats them all so far. I'm not planning on doing much today after the flight. I'm just going to stay here in my room, take in the view and plan my next two days here. Speak soon lovelies. Hixxie Pixie xoxoxox

Hey Jelly Beans. Today was my final day here in Dublin. I'm Currently sat outside a cute little café having a coffee after visiting The Science Gallery.   This attraction is well worth the visit. It's free, interesting and if you love anything Science related then you will love this place. I spent a long while looking around the exhibit's which were truly fascinating. I noticed that there were many families in there with younger children, so I suggest it would be a good place to visit during the holidays with children.   Once I had finished I took a stroll along the streets and pottered around all the little shops before taking a well earned break here.   Like I said today has been my last day here in Dublin. Cases packed and ready to head home tomorrow and I will miss it here.   Overall Experience.   I have had such a blast here seeing some truly amazing things. The Castle was amazing and worth the trip but the thing that stood out mos...

Hey Jelly Beans. I'm here In Dublin and have been for two days now. I apologise for not blogging yesterday, but the hotel was experiencing technique Wi-Fi difficulties. But it's all back to working order now. So first things first. I'm staying in the Ashling Hotel, which I am extremely happy with already. The room is super clean, comfy, décor is great and it makes you feel warm and cozy when you step inside the door. Again the staff here are always pleased to help out where they can and were very apologetic for the internet problem as they knew I was a newly started travel blogger and YouTube vlogger and it would of interfered with my work. So so far so good for this hotel. Yesterday morning I had this amazing breakfast. It was very filling and very hunger satisfying. tea, coffee, fresh orange juice the works. I in fact didn't have any lunch after this mammoth meal. After, I hopped into a taxi and headed to Dublin Castle (Pictured Below). This castle was simpl...

Hey Jelly Beans. I'm so so so sorry that I haven't uploaded a new post since last year! But as many of you would know, if you follow me on YouTube, Instagram and Twitter, I have got a new job now which takes up a chunk of my day and what with it being christmas and doing my first vlogmas I haven't had much time. But today that all changes. I'm going to put aside time each night, no matter how big or small and write a post to all you lovely people. So with that said I'm heading off to get some shut eye as today has been a long day. Tomorrow the fun and games begin. Love ya'll Hixxie Pixie Xoxoxoxox

Hey Jelly Beans. So today is my last full day. My case is packed ready for my flight home tomorrow. I have had such a fantastic couple of days. I really am going to miss this place so much. After polishing off my yummy full breakfast again I took a trip to Toulouse Market. A friend of mine had approached me before my trip and said I should pay it a visit as they have the most fantastic fish stall. I was not disappointed when I arrived. The array of different fish and shell fish that greeted me was incredible. They had everything from cod to haddock, salmon to plaice. Prawns to my favourite Scallops. So much to chose from. It was a shame I couldn't take any back to my family as they all love fish. Sad to say shortly after taking the above picture my camera battery died so I was unable to take pictures of some more interesting stalls. I also couldn't take a picture of this artist outside the market do character drawings. He was better than any I have seen in the UK bef...
