Well we made it! The book tour has been officially completed and we are safely back in beautiful, warm and sunny Sydney for the Holidays. Looking back it’s hard to believe we went to so many amazing places in such a short time…truly a whirlwind tour. We are all looking forward to some rest and relaxation over the next few weeks and a family celebration for...
Learn MoreTonight we fly to Melbourne, and officially leave the final destination of the “Labour of Love” book tour; San Diego. We’re looking forward to three days in Melbourne visiting family, before flying back to our home in Sydney for the holidays. Yesterday I finished the media portion of the tour with three live interviews on local San Diego morning shows. First up was...
Learn MoreWe have officially arrived at our final destination San Diego after driving from Orange County this afternoon. Tomorrow morning I will be doing some local media and morning television programmes that will bring the tour to a close. But we are ending on a really successful note as we had a second fantastic signing at the Anne Geddes Store this afternoon. The sun was...
Learn MoreToday I had a really great book signing at the Anne Geddes Store at Downtown Disney. I love being with the team at the store and even though it was raining, so many lovely people came in to have books signed and to say hello. I must say a big thank you to all the parents who brought in their gorgeous little babies – such a special atmosphere. We have another signing...
Learn MoreToday we drove into LA from Orange County (where we are staying) to do some media in the city. Of course as anyone living in Los Angeles knows the traffic here can be problematic at times (to say the least), so of course we left ourselves two hours for the drive and wouldn’t you know it took us less than an hour! To start the day I had a live interview on “KTLA”,...
Learn MoreWhat a bright and early morning we had with a start time of 5.30am today! We were at the Anne Geddes Store at Downtown Disney, where we had a camera and sound crew set up for interviews that would be broadcast to national morning news programmes around the country. There were around ten interviews in total, which was a little daunting to begin with because it is a...
Learn MoreWe had a very good morning today at the Paramount Lot in Los Angeles where I taped an interview with Thea Andrews for Entertainment Tonight. It was fantastic to get a look behind the scenes of such a successful show (it has been running for 26 years) and meet the team there. Everybody was so enthusiastic, professional and friendly, it was a real pleasure. The interview...
Learn MoreWhat a quick trip indeed! We spent last night in Austin and have just arrived in Los Angeles on the plane this afternoon. Despite our limited time in Texas we did manage to do something authentic last night by dining at a local barbeque restaurant not far from our hotel where we all proceeded to eat far too much steak, brisket and short ribs. The smell of the wood and oak...
Learn MoreToday we had a very short but packed day (or should I say morning) in Houston, which we discovered is now the fourth largest city in America. It was a bit of a shock to be back in the cold weather though, but it was made easier by the beautiful blue skies! As I mentioned in the posting last night, first thing this morning I had an interview on “Fox 26 Morning News”,...
Learn MoreWell we are officially back on the “Labour of Love” book tour after a very long plane flight from Sydney (I took the above photo from the plane window)! It was great to have a bit of a break but it’s also really exciting to be back on the road. We have just arrived in Houston tonight where we will get to bed early ready for our busy day tomorrow. For those...
