My Favorite Thing - So Far ......








I'll be taking home several things from this trip - not all of them tangible. I'll be leaving behind somethings' too.....also, not all tangible. One thing this trip has created is a plan that we'll be having our own club....so far there'll be four members, the membership will require some cash....to buy matching cars. Yep...that's right. We're going to have matching vintage cars shipped home to the states. Do we have the cash to do this? No. Is it at all practical? No. Will it be fun if we do in fact pull this off? Of course it will!!!! It may never come to pass but we'll have fun in the shopping and planning and discussing of our car club. My biggest problem with creating this club??? What color car do I want and since I have no cash I'm sure my little vintage classic will be the saddest looking of the bunch.

Something else as a side note I forgot to tell you, they LOVE fireworks here. Every night we can hear distant explosions going off, sometimes cannons. Last night we enjoyed a great colorful fireworks display that would have put Disneyland to shame. Speaking of Disney - they don't seem too popular here, the big rage with both young girls and older is Hello Kitty....Hello Kitty everywhere. Not sure why they like it so much? Maybe cheaper than the cost of Disney items. I'm going to post a few more pictures, the Raspberry Bars were a big hit at work and I regret I didn't make a double batch....oh well, I passed along the recipe so hopefully anyone with an inclination for baking can whip up another pan. Enjoy the pictures...tomorrow we'll be going out again to a new location for more pictures and food....and group shots. I've been waiting until the last possible moment to take group shots so we'll take home with us Baby Z closest to how she looked when we last held her....I've already decided the frames and the entire wall I plan to begin her photographic journey through life.

The vintage cars we're looking to buy? I'll tell you after we've bought them.....it's part of the new chapter of life I see Man In Black and I driving down the road.....of course, I want my own car so we'll be side by side on the road which should give you some idea as to the size of these fun little babies. Have a great day....thanks for coming along on this adventure with me....

So how do I sign up to be a member of the vintage car club? Sounds like fun!! By the way, great pics. First couple look like they were take at high altitude, almost like from a plane.

We were on a volcano standing on the edge of a crater not from from the house...but far enough not to have to worry about lava....it was a lot cooler and windy up there
