Hello! We had a wonderful vacation, but it feels good to be back here (finally!). I shared a few photos on Instagram while we were there, but I didn’t look at everything all together until this past weekend.
Here’s a peek at my Top Ten (warning – lots of sunshine, beautiful food, ocean views and selfies 😊).
Hands down the best photo of the two of us, taken at the beginning of a sunset sailing cruise on Monday evening. This is at Land’s End – the Pacific Ocean is on the other side of that rock behind us.
My favorite evening spot. This bar looks out over the pools and the ocean and at night, they light the fires. The evenings there are around 60 degrees … the fire felt good!
You can’t swim in the ocean, so we spent our days at the pool. Just beyond the pool you can see the tops of the umbrellas on the beach and the ocean. Pretty much my favorite day spot!

| I also read a lot … and finally got to Louise Penny’s latest – LOVED! |
Here’s the view from my balcony pilates studio. Coming back to my living room has been tough!
The sunset on our cruise was amazing.
We chose the resort (Le Blanc Spa) because the food was supposed to outstanding. It was. Every meal was beautifully presented and it all tasted delicious. Coming up with favorites was hard!
Prettiest dessert. A deconstructed Crème Brûlée, from the French restaurant.
Best new thing I tried. An egg white omelet filled with vegetables and goat cheese.
Best take on a favorite snack. Chips and guacamole.
Best take on a favorite cocktail. The Negroni XXI at the Fire Bar, made with hibiscus infused vermouth and pineapple infused Campari.
Coming back to salads and lean protein and “plain old wine” hasn’t been easy!
We both took a lot of video, too – here are my favorite 48 seconds.
Sigh … and now it’s Monday (but at least it’s not snowing!) …
I’m looking forward to catching up with all of you over the next few days. Here’s to a great week!
