Same view-different day. |
While at St Pete Beach there was a HUGE rally entitled Motorcycles Ride For Toys For Tots. It took me over an hour to cross the street but I enjoyed EVery minute of it! |
It was kind of funny - later when I found out that all those motorcycle videos I took...didn't take. (New camera). But those riders don't know that. |
Next time we go...we'll check out the prices at the Thunderbird on the beach. Even though I TOTally loved Bay Palms Resort...where we stayed the last couple times. |
Sweets saying bye bye till next time. He really IS the sweetest thing! |
On the way home...in Colombia...between Cartagena and Barranquilla. |
This is a Welcome Center near Puerta Colombia on the road between Cartagena and Barranquilla. One day...I'm gonna stop in. (We're always in the van when we pass it). |
In the van...and yes...the video was soft porn. I laughed all the way home! |
A fruit stand/restaurant in the middle of...nowhere. |
One of the houses we passed on the way home. Makes me SO very thankful for what I have |
Another scenic view on the way to home sweet home. |
New healthier ways to treat myself.
Had to post this because Do It has been my mantra - or one of them - for ages. On the back of the seat in the plane. Dream It. Do It. |
Sophia did most of the tree decorating this year. :) |
Lots of help in the kitchen! |
The most precious thing under the tree! |
Where we spent the early part of Christmas Eve. :) |
Where we spent most of the latter part of Christmas Eve. I forgot to get my camera out at the other party! |
I didn't take many pix of Barranquilla at night...but I did get a few. |
This city turns into a wonderland during Christmastime. |
elseways, I wouldn't be able to think straight.
I also wanted to tell you about Effy Wild's
and Strathmore's offer of free art classes.
Is that far out or what?!?
As Sophia would answer...What?
You lookin at ME!?! |
i love seeing the difference between the US and colombia in your posts -- and how you shift so effortlessly between the worlds!
ReplyDeleteThanks Aimee!
ReplyDeleteColombia is actually beginning to feel like home. Sorta. A little. Maybe.
All these photos are just lovely to see. The views and all that greenery, surprise me, didn't realise there would be so many trees for some reason. How lucky to be in the sun on Christmas Eve!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are so interesting, and certainly do give me things to think about and feel grateful for. I hope all your goals and wishes for the new year come true.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ann! We've had a prolonged rainy season which of course helps the green to stay. By March...it's usually a horse of a different color!
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much Gayle. Living in a third world country has done that for me…for sure! I wish the best for you in the new year!
ReplyDeleteFree art lessons ARE pretty far out. The Wild precious offer looks intriguing also. Me, I have to do my own thang.
ReplyDeletesooo, you have an inordinate supply of tropical plants for dyeing. how incredibly lucky!
ReplyDeleteHi Carol. :) I'm so happy that you DO do your own thang...because it ALways makes me happy!
ReplyDeleteHi Neki! I do have a non-ending supply…and have done some ‘pounding’ but haven’t tried dyeing…yet!
