Hi, Becky here.

A slightly different entry from the usual glamorous goings on at Isabella Oliver (and believe me glamorous and rafting do not go hand in hand, as the before and after photos below demonstrate).

Last week Geoff and I attended a great online conference called shop.org. It showcases the best in online retailing, new technologies, trends for the coming months and is a great place to meet new people in the industry.

This year it was held in Las Vegas and while others chose to spend spare time in the casino we tried something different. Making the most of the great outdoors, we visited the Grand Canyon (and flew over it, what a fantastic view), the Hoover Dam and the highlight - white water rafted in the Colorado River – it was an amazing day trip and we’d both thoroughly recommend it if you’re ever in Vegas.
