Morning sunshines!
I’m still trying to recover. I thought painting my daughter’s room would help to , you know, make me feel normal again. Which is why I can hardly open my right hand this morning. (#canyousaygranniehands?) But I wanted to peek in and say hi and tell you that I’ve put all my Nicaragua posts in one place so they’re easy to find and share. We’re getting ready for lots of company in the next two weeks so I’ll probably be sparse around here. I have a few scheduled/sponsored posts so I won’t be totally absent, just a little busy with cooking and fluffing the guest rooms. I’ve almost got my menu for next week planned, which means you might wanna head on over to Bean Station. Just sayin’. Thank you for sharing these posts with all your friends. Kids are getting sponsored because you care! And this song, ( I Cry by Thad Cockrell)? Currently the soundtrack to my days. (Thank you, Keely!)

When on holiday, sometimes things don’t always go how you like. There are likely to be times that are less than romantic, but keeping your sense of humour is key to still having a good time. So, you might get stung on the behind by a jellyfish, you might spill a meal all over your favourite dress, or accidentally trip over and land in the swimming pool, but as long as you can laugh about it, it won’t spoil your day.Car rental under 25

The act of traveling possesses an extraordinary capacity to reveal unfamiliar languages, customs, and ways of life that would otherwise remain unknown to us. It has a remarkable ability to question our existing beliefs and broaden our understanding of the world we inhabit. Whether we set out on voyages to historical landmarks, immerse ourselves in the culinary delights of different cultures, or interact with the local inhabitants, traveling presents us with a plethora of singular experiences that foster a profound comprehension and admiration for the vast diversity that exists within our global society.Taxi Weybridge to Heathrow
