One can always dream

So today we went to Coromandel Peninsula (well we also went to Monte Cecilia but this is the more interesting part). And it was so amazing! I can understand why they used that setting in The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian, it was so magical.

We're all big fans of the Narnia-series so we had a bit of a fangirl moment knowing that they filmed there xD We kinda hoped that we would eventually end up in Narnia if we went through it a couple of times…but no such luck. I guess that was as close as we'll ever get to Narnia (if you don't count the other Narnia locations we'll be visiting).
And this was only our first stop when it comes to Narnia sightseeing, they filmed more on the South Island than they ever did on the North Island.

Now I'm heading to bed, it's almost midnight here… 

This one has really bad quality…sorry

I just realised that I haven't uploaded any pictures of our hotel or how we're living… my bad.

We're staying at the Skycity Grand Hotel here in Auckland and it's absolutely amazing!
There's four of us and I had the delight to share room with Olivia. The rooms a rather spacious and I think I'm going to like it here for a while, I will at least enjoy the beds, it's like sleeping on a cloud (if you don't fall through xP)! And they have a pool so I can still train (not like usual but still). They also have a gym where you can get a personal trainer…not something I'm going to take advantage of but I know someone who will ;) (hint towards Sara).

There's a spa as well, and I'm sure that when we're not out running about, Elin and Olivia will spend their time in there. I however will spend my time in the pool or dragging the girls to the restaurants in and around the hotel, I just love trying new food (I'm are real food lover, if I didn't swim regularly I would be as big as a house!).
 
Oh well, I have to go now. We're heading to the Monte Cecilia grounds and to Coromandel Peninsula, two of the locations where they filmed The Chronicles of Narnia (I'll post pictures later and I'm sure that all the fans will recognise it!). Enjoy the pictures from the hotel.

And this is our room

Just landed in Hong Kong, China!
It's 7am and we are sitting at the airport waiting for our flight to Auckland, New Zealand.

This was the only time I could update during the trip, not internet connection on the plane ofc (like always) and it was like a 10 hour flight! I'm so exhausted…
There's not much to tell about the flight…we flew business class so there was a lot of space at least. I hate when you sit crammed between two people and you can hardly move without hitting someone.

Elin was sitting next to me but she spent the whole trip sleeping :P
Then again, I spent the later part of the trip (right before we landed) sleeping, but before that I made sure that I had things to keep me occupied during the trip. I put every single Narnia film in my computer, plus some other ones just so I could have something to watch (I don't always trust the airline companies to pick good movies).

Anyway, like I said we're just waiting for our next flight and I have Frida and Josefin sleeping on the table in front of me (there's hardly any room for the computer!).

I'll post something more when we land in Auckland and we've gotten to sleep in real beds at the hotel.

P.S. the blog is kinda under construction, that's why it looks like it does and why some of the links don't work. I'll fix that as soon as I can!

You are probably wondering why on earth I would go to Milan when I'm so close to the New Zealand trip. The reason is very simple: when you get the opportunity to go to Milan Fashion Week, you take it!

I wanted to go to the London Fashion Week but we weren't able to and since I won't be in Sweden for Stockholm Fashion Week I couldn't let this slip by when my friend asked me to come.
MFW lasts from the 19th to the 25th but we're going back home on the 23th, I need more than two days before I'm ready to travel again xP

But anyway, today was the first day and it was awesome!

We went to both the Gucci and the Alberta Ferretti shows and I just loved all the dresses, kinda wish they were in my closet right now ;)

I'll update more tomorrow!
