A school term of rigid routine, medical appointments, sickness, work, school, and other commitments saw AH and I embraced this mini staycation with open arms. We actually surprised the kids about this staycation; I was attending a work PD and when they came to pick me up, AH had our bags packed ready for the stay. To keep the weekend on budget, we made a quick trip down to Woolies to stock up on snacks and drinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/192.168.0.14\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_0241-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1485\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lalaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_0241-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/lalaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_0241-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lalaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/IMG_0241-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><figcaption><em>The foyer of Crown Metropol, Perth<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Except for breakfast, we mainly ate outside of the hotel.
