Blue (Da Ba Dee Da Ba Die)

Some snaps from our vacation and a swim in Andalucia:
   
     

Spain – 2012 Euro Cup Football Champions!
  

Vespa in a bar…why not?
 

It’s not a swim unless I’m covered in diaper cream:
   

Swim swim…
 

The swim was good except for being super-cold and a nasty current just when I was coming in to shore:
  

One of the few directives I got was not to land in the caves because it’s dangerous.  So guess where I landed?  I loved the cave though, beautiful and mysterious:
 

Flying the Spanish flag on the way back, on the way back a huge whale was blowing air and flipped his tail at us!
 

Gotta love a random camel ride on a public street:

That looks so fun yet relaxing. 🙂 Aaand now that song is stuck in my head…

Spain is one of the places I’ve always wanted to go. You look great all in white :-).

I love the pic of the beach umbrellas – it looks like they’re floating!

July 10, 2012

Ah, yay for sunny Spain! Glad you had fun!

I’m off to Andalucia next week when I get back from NY. Any tips? This looks fab. Vxx

wow, i know this stuff is normal for you, but it is alway extraordinary! great scenery! lol @ the diaper cream!

July 11, 2012

Thanks for your note 🙂 Great pictures!

You know, I almost put diaper cream on Lilly as an emergency sunscreen the other day, but then I felt weird about slathering her in glowing white cream, but now I realize that it would be the best sunscreen ever! I AM a genius, deep down. Knew it. Honestly, though, this all looks incredible. Those caves…!

July 12, 2012

wow – it’s BEAUTIFUL there! i wanna go… and i also really, really, really want to ride a camel!

July 14, 2012

Looks awesome!!

July 14, 2012

Those are gorgeous. (… and the song is in my head, too).

July 15, 2012

Wow. How exciting to be in Spain when they won! So..the diaper cream protects you from the salty water I assume? They have camel’s in Spain?

ryn: It was actually very clean and the only funky smells came from the occasional BO from sweaty tourists. I want to check out Milan, Rome and Amalfi coast now. If I were to return to Venice, I’d take a LOVE-AH to Carnivale. It’s in February so it’s freezing but it’s when they have the incredible masked costume balls. I’m itching to go to Asia next. Hong Kong, Bali, Japan.

Gorgeous photos! The camel ride looks amazing, what a cool experience.

July 16, 2012

RYN: Maybe you just need baby urine to help rinse it off??? Hahaha! Gross. I’m coming to NY soon! My cell phone number is 416 707 1662!

You know, I may not believe you about these adventures if you didn’t post pics to prove it. 🙂

July 19, 2012

ryn: added!

ryn: Yeah those are the dates. I know they’re weird! July 20 to Aug 1. That really sucks that you’ll be travelling! Toronto is hot and weird in the summer, too. I’m used to it.

July 19, 2012

ryn: can you leave that note on the Brick page under the essay? or LIKE it there? thanks!

July 20, 2012

Pure Bliss!

RYN* Right? I was joking with him that I may be a bitch, but no one can say that I don’t take care of him.

July 21, 2012

Such fabulous photos! Also, I’m quite smitten with your Vespa at the Bar ensemble. It looks so chic, yet comfy. And it’s black! (I have to purposely remember to incorporate color when clothes shopping, because black’s my favorite.)

July 23, 2012

Looks like a pretty awesome vacation. And we have windmills like that here! They call them wind farms. They’re HUGE! ~jo

July 31, 2012

ryn: ya know, now that you mention it… it’s not really that much like her writing style at all. at least, not the way I knew her. maybe the “new” her?
