DisneyWorld~Orlando~FL

January was sort of a fast pace month. David and the girls surprised me with a Birthday party and then the next day  we left for DisneyWorld.  It was a trip for the two of us and one that I will always remember, it was truly delightful and full of fun experiences. We stayed at the Polynesian Resort, one of the most amazing Disney resorts and every night before we went to our room we had a "dole-whip" a soft pineapple ice-cream that was the most delicious treat, after all,,,we walked all day long. We enjoyed the Magic Kingdom and Wild Animal Kingdom, but I love, love, love Epcot…It was such a fun  cultural experience and a great place for shopping which of course I enjoyed. We had breakfast at the France exhibit which had the most amazing bakery, we went there a couple times. Lunch in Italy and of course I loved the tea shop in England. We had dinner at "Le Cellier"the famous Canadian restaurant.  The weather was lovely and every night we enjoyed the beautiful fireworks that of course are done the Disney way and doesn't matter how many times we experience this it is always magic.

The Bahamas

We had a wonderful vacation at The Bahamas. White sand, sunny days and lots of sightseeing of beautiful places. Our cruise took us to Nassau where we got to see and enjoy Atlantis. From then we went to St Thomas, where we spent time at the beach and toward the end of the day we walked through the "Diamond District" where serious jewelry shopping goes on day and night. Our next destination was Grand Turk, where really it wasn't much of anything, but their beaches where absolutely a dream and that is exactly what we enjoyed...time in the sand, water and total relaxation. Our last stop was San Juan - Puerto Rico. This was the icing in the cake...I could have stayed days just taking pictures. Loved it..the colors, the history, their people. So much to see. They call San Juan "Isla del Encanto" or "Enchanted Island" and that name describe it perfectly. David and i had a wonderful time together. Our room at the cruise had a lovely balcony and we were pampered every day. Very blessed indeed.

Coronado-California

Just spend a week in sunny California, just the two of us and it was lovely...We needed to get away from work and wedding planning. It was a carefree trip and enjoyable all the way. We visited Coronado,  a beautiful beach to walk in the sand and really feel like we were the only ones there.

Las Vegas~Fun times

This year for my birthday we went to Vegas for a few days, Not really too many great pics ,when is just the two of us I kind of forget to take pictures. I have mentioned before that we LOVE las Vegas, we don't care about the Casino life, but we go for the Art Galleries, my favorite shoppes, to see a show or a concert, the fab restaurants and to spend a few nights in a nice Hotel and relax. This time we stayed at The Venetian, beautiful and so busy with so many restaurants from well known chefs , we ate at Valentinos and it was a great food experience. The weather was a total delight....

A trip to Idaho.

I took a quick trip to Idaho to spend a couple of days with my friend Angie.

 The 4 hour drive was a slide show of  beautiful  land ...

So green with the recent rains

seems that it goes on forever,

 which I could stop at every farm and just get pics of the horses and farm houses, love to drive by and imagine how people spend their lives surrounded in such beauty. 

I did not have my Nikon with me,

but I manage to capture the splendor. 

Las Vegas 10-10-10

This week we had a few days of fun in Las vegas. We were there to celebrate David's birthday and to attend the wedding of some close friends..all of this on 10-10-10...We love the Vegas craziness..the people, the amazing restaurants, the shows and the shopping..We stayed at Planet Hollywood and chances are we'll stay there again, because we love how it is in the middle of everything...

  David and I had an amazing week in NY City. We went to see two Broadway musicals, Phantom and Lion King. We explored many different areas in Manhattan. One of my favorites was Chelsea and the wonderful Chelsea Market, home to the Food Network. We had a day in Central Park and it was truly amazing and beautiful. I love how people are so talented and artistic in NY, love the fashion and love the energy of the City. I'm in love with New York City!!
