Courtyard By Marriott Fort Lauderdale Weston

The Nikki Beach Restaurant & Bungalow Resort, Koh Samui Thailand was the spot that we visited recently. There was immaculate service from all personal assistants at all times, they told us all the great spots to hang out and have dinner. The room, food and almost everything were nothing less than perfect. The nature was the friend of us. We simply could not ask anything better than that. These things meant the most to us and Nikki Beach will always be a part of our outing.

... as Buckey fans, we are obligated to watch the game no matter what.

Bob Brudzinski is a relatively famous and decorated former Buckeye and NFL player. Luck has it that he opened up a chain of sports bars/restaurants in the Ft. Lauderdale area, and they are very Buckeye friendly. So, that's where we went to watch the game.

... was running late and to show up an hour later. When I checked in they set me up in a prep-room at 1:00, put the IV in and kept postponing the test for later and later in the day. Finally, at 4:15, I was in the O.R. and had the test. THANK GOD, nothing was found. In the past, I would have lived that 3 weeks obsessed with the worst case scenerio. To help stop myself from freaking out, I typed out all of the times in my past when it looked like a terrible outcome was ahead of me ...

... my guidebook. This is my first trip without my MP3 player and I already regret it. I have almost two weeks to look forward to with no music... I also need to buy a camera backpack because the regular one I have now is really awkward and bulky. I'll have to wait until I get to Ecuador..

We are the last ones to board the plane and because of this our seats have been split because a family want's to sit together. The start of a journey usually symbolises how the rest of it will play out so i'm slightly worried! On our way to our split seats we start to talk to the male 'trolley dolly'. He disappears and then reappears a few minutes later asking us both to follow him. He leads us through to 'World ...

East Coast of The US We arrived into Miami airport just before 11pm. Although we were a day late it was a great feeling to finally be in Florida. We picked up our hire car after a little hassle but no real drama. We drove to our hotel on South Beach. As it was a Saturday night so the locals were out in force, waiting to get into the many clubs along the main strip. We checked in to our hotel once again without hassle (god bless America) and headed ...

... that you should always write about something that you love. Well, I love Catalina, and, boy do I love myself! Let me start with Catalina first: Catalina.- Her full name is Juana Angelica Catalina Acosta y Matellini de Alvarez. She became 60 years old last September 14th. She complains like she is 80. Nags me as if I were 15 and actually looks 45. She was born in the town of Pativilca, which is about an hour or so north of Lima, Peru. At this point I realize that I should provide ...
