Best spa I have EVER been in!

We came here to Tunisia on holiday for a pre Christmas rest and on day 1 went to see around the spa...well, I have been in many spas in many hotels and this is the best ( and biggest )one I have ever been in. It was amazing!
On day 2 ( Tuesday ) I had the rosemary body wrap in a water bed, in a bath.....incredible experience, soooooo relaxing. Then I had a back and shoulder massage with massage purses....another new experience. In between having each treatment they took me to the chill out area for a cup of relaxing tea......sensational. I can't think of enough superlatives for this place...would defo do it again ( maybe I will before I come home...will keep you posted)
This marvellous place is in the @royal kenz hotel in port el kantoui... Have a look at it .http://www.venere.com/hotels/port-el-kantaoui/hotel-royal-kenz/
No card making here, just thinking ahead to Valentines day!

Day 1. December 5th 2013

Hi all, today I am dipping my toe in the blogging water....scary.
I woke up to rain and gales...pretty much sums up my state of mind right now too!
Yesterday my wee 78 yr old Mum had a fall and gave us all a bad fright...not least herself. She tripped over a cushion, hit the wall and bounced off the opposite wall. Luckily she only ended up with cuts and bruises but with her steroid use, her skin is so thin and fragile that all they could do was steristrip her back together. She looks as though she has gone 10 rounds with Muhammed Ali.
She is staying with me for a few days to recover...now I feel like the Mum and she is the child!
Anyway, I am grateful I still have her to look after and counting my many blessings.
On a happier note I took delivery of a new alphabet die today , looking forward to trying it out later. Will do my best to get out to the Hobby Hut today .
