visit to Chengdu, China

what a whirlwind! US, Spain, Denmark and China before heading home for the Holidays. Here's a few shots from my trip to the Panda breeding center, dinners out with colleagues and a bit of chinese entertainment.


what a way to nap! they were absolutely adorable- though very lazy guys!

these excercise parks are all over china for adults to use- how funny!

Weekend in Paris

both of us have been here many times, never together. I had to be in Copenhagen for 2 weeks, Ricardo in Madrid- so being the abnormal people we are- we picked a weekend destination with the latest Sunday flight times. We were lucky enough to stay with our 2 close friends, Oscar and Esther. Wonderful weekend with food, wine, friends and beautiful sights. (not so great weather!)
at the Louvre
getting in the holiday spirit! cannot wait to be home for the holidays!

Return to Isle of Palms

Cross over the Ashley River to paradise. I love this place and this is what i daydream about in the cold winter days in Copenhagen (ehhem.. now for example). Before moving out of my place in Charlotte, I took a week at the company house in Wild Dunes. A few days with Mom & Dad, a few with Shereen & Henrik- all the way from Cairo- and a few days relaxing with Christy. and we also managed to buy a Wedding dress in between! (sooo wish i could post our fun pictures with mom, linda, gladys and christy, my photographer). Soon!!!
