Hunter Valley Offsite

Occasionally I get sent to cool places like the Sebel Kirkton Park Hotel in the Hunter Valley for an offsite.

The hotel was stunning, set in beautiful rollings hills. The property had a few dams and I saw some kangaroos hopping in the distance.

This is the room I shared with Katia. Another thing about offsites – they’re kind of like having a sleepover in high school again. I always get great roommates so it’s a lot of fun.

Bird of paradise flowers.

Where are our rooms?

Pretty balcony view.

Close-up of roses.

Piece of wood I smashed into three pieces using the palm of my hand. Yeah!

Me and Katia with Olympic gold medal winner Lauren Burns, who gave us a bit of a martial arts lesson.

All prettied up at the Casino Royal-themed dinner.

Even under duress, I won’t give up my lip gloss.

Retribution is swift.

Going for a walk around the property with Katia and Shaden.

I also stopped at a winery on the way home and stocked up on some red, white and dessert wine. Does an offsite get much better than this?!
