Justice League Run - Recap

The Justice League Fun Run was a great run. We had the option of entering as Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman or the Green Lantern. I entered as Wonder Woman which wasn't terribly original! If this run is on next year I am going to enter as Superman as the shirt was better!

I was pretty happy I ran the entire 8km (app didn't work!), it was around 50 minutes which I was pretty happy with!

We headed over to Mugshot to get a bite for breakfast after. It was crazily busy so I had some yoghurt with nuts which was yummy, then after I got home had poached eggs and salmon for lunch! That was even better!!

Dreamz for Nepal Run Recap

This run was held at Straits Quay. My phone seemed to pause the app for around 500 metres, so my official 5km run was around 32 minutes - pretty happy with that. As per normal Penang runs I did a lot of weaving around people who stop right in front to walk.

I got home, had a shower and poached eggs with avocado for breakfast, and then chilled on the couch with this little guy for the rest of the day. The big kids watched a few movies with us which was lovely. No better way to spend a Sunday then a run followed by quality family time.

Declan - 6 months old!

Bone 2 Run Penang

I did a 5.5km walk on Sunday pushing Declan in my new Bob Revolution Running Pram. It was lovely to get out and my goal is to start actually running with the pram!! The run called "Bone 2 Run" was in aid of Bone Cancer, and it was lovely to do something for such an important cause. Declan was perfect, and even fell asleep towards the end of the walk. :)

Vietnam - Ho Chi Minh to Penang - Day 10

We headed home today!! I didn't get many pics as we were just travelling - just Declan, Keenan & myself in the van on the way to the airport!!! It was a great holiday and we are definitely going to be heading back to Vietnam as we loved it. Isabel and I are thinking of heading to Hoi An for her birthday next year, and we want to do Hanoi / Sapa / Halong Bay sometime in the next 2 years. We will probably combine that with Cambodia & Laos. I highly recommend coming to Vietnam if you can!

Vietnam - Mekong Delta - Day 9

Today we drove out to the Mekong River for our Mekong Delta Cruise and lunch excursion. It was a wet day so we were pretty fortunate we didn't get caught in it too much! We travelled on a big boat down the river to a little traditional village where we saw how they make coconut candy and they had snacks in bottles which was a bit freaky! We swapped over to little canoes to be taken through the canals. It was pretty cool and showed us how the Vietnamese fishing village people live. We had a snack in a village and were serenaded by a lady and a few men singing. After watching them and having our snack we were back on the bus on the way to lunch, which was a 5 course meal included in our tour in a restaurant on the way back to Ho Chi Minh City. I am not a big fan of eating fish that is still in one piece, but this fish was cooked beautifully. We had rice paper rolls (which I love) and a few other delicacies which were great. We were all very full when we finished lunch!

After our lunch we headed back to the hotel where we had a rest and then headed out for a walk around the city to grab some dinner. We ended up grabbing another Bahn Mi and having a quiet night in the hotel as Declan was tired and needed rest. It was a great way to spend our last night in Ho Chi Minh City.
