Back to Reality

We leave behind a person grown stale with familarity - ourselves.

We find, for a time at any rate, an attractive stranger - ourselves.

We walk along new streets, all eyes, all ears, noticing as we never do back home, back where everything is memorised - that is why we love to travel.

Quote by Donald Richie

We're back from a fabulous vacation in Phuket

-where snorkeling felt like swimming in an aquarium

-where the sand was so white like nowhere before

-where it turned out that riding a quad bike is not as easy as it looks (I hit a tree)

-from where we brought a little extra present of about 7 pounds (split between the both of us) due to superb thai food

With one word - a successful trip with no worries!

Finally Spring!

Hey there - I was strolling through the annual Victoria Park Flower Show today which was marked mostly by the Olympic theme - as you might know, the equestrian competitions of the Olympics will take place in Hong Kong in August (got tickets for the dressage) - unbelievable which objects they created with just a few flowers. Other than reporting this, I wanted to wish all of you Sunny & Happy Easter Holidays - you can find us in Phuket/Thailand where we'll take off to on thursday for our well earned and much needed vacation. Stay safe and talk to you soon!

Frozen In Time

This is really fun to watch if you didn't see it already - Over 200 people gathered at Grand Central Station in New York to pull off a 'frozen in place' act. The onlooking travelers who weren't part of the act were mystified as to what was going on - I wish I could have been part of this just to listen in on the comments of the Travelers....and I miss NYC, sigh....
