First Day :) Heading to the Blue mountains

So early start today. Left my house at 6:30 am to get to the hotel at 7:30 am, Even though my first pick up was at 8:30! better to be early than late:)

I met my first Famil Delegate Christine Wong, Unfortunately our transport bus happened to have a flat battery as he was making his way to get us, so I organised a maxi taxi to go around to every hotel and help me pick up the delegates to save time:)

We met Roberto at the last hotel, A very lovely gentleman who owns Blue Diamond Tours, and off we went to the Blue Mountains, on our way Roberto Dropped us off at Leura a suburb close by to our hotel.

It had such nice shops, such as a shop that just sold Christmas ornaments, Dog clothing, Organic food, Kids Toy shop and so on. And a nice little bench for Bored Husbands.

So if you can spot the rabbits at the back right of the shop front:) thats Groban on the left, and Yuki on the right :)

We stopped of for morning tea at BYGONE BEAUTYS! were the Delegates enjoyed some fresh baked scones and tea/coffee. Bygone Beautys is a beautiful coffee/antique shop, it really has a Blue Mountains Vibe, It was an amazing place:)

Christine & Emma enjoying their fresh cream, jam and scones.

We then made our way to the Mountain Heritage Hotel & Spa, Were we were met by Dean the manager of the dinning area, who took care of us during Lunch, and made sure everything was fine for the delegates.

Nice View from the Mountain Heritage hotel.

Then we were met by Roger Sargison, who showed the delegates the beautiful rooms and function spaces at the Mountain Heritage. Who taught us that CHRISTMAS IN JULY actually started at the hotel because a bunch of tourist said they felt like it was really cold and there was a vibe of a white christmas during july at the blue mountains, so the owner at the time held a party themed as christmas in july and thats were it got its name from!

How awesome is that! It started in Australia not only that but in NSW!

Then he walked us up to Sublime Spa, Were we were awaited by 3 beautiful girls, who gave each of us a beautiful 30 min back massage, and this wonderful Lemon Tea.

We all felt so relaxed from how beautiful the Spa Treatment was. Some of the delegates even fell asleep:) I guess that shows how good the Treatment was.

We then were driven to Lilianfels Blue Mountains Spa and resort were we checked in, and were welcomes by such lovely receptionists were they directed us to our Lovely Rooms!!!

we all them met at the lobby in order to cross the road to Echoes, were we were guided by kathy a lovely lady who showed us the rooms there, and then had prepared for us canapes and drinks:)

Where everyone got the chance to talk and get to know each other a bit more:) we were then directed back to Lilianfels Blue Mountains Spa and Resort, were we were welcomed to a beautiful dinner in a function room, were we sat for dinner on a beautiful table with a unique centre piece!
