A recap of some recent travels and a question to guide upcoming ones:
New York
This trip was a mix of Ab Fab, What not to wear, and Seinfeld. Theatre and Bob Dillon aside, it was far less cultural than we usually allow, but a hell of a lot of fun, decandence and debauchery. Next time I promise to be more 'arty'.
One and Only Palmilla, Cabo st. lucas
Work trip and despite long delays, it was nice to end up in balmy Mexico early Dec. Driving up through the "one and only" resort was a shock since the exact same layout and plan is in southern Thailand under a similar name. I had been there a few years ago and asked the driver if it was the same company, he said no...apparently there's an underground market for this kind of thing :-)
Whistler
After three years I finally make it and couldn't have asked for a better day. Big fat snowflakes, friends and a personal tour made my first time out this season pure bliss. oh, and know I now know what it is to ski in snow - hard work...
Toronto
Funny to think that "Toronto", a former home for me, is now a place I just travel to and actually feel like a tourist. Despite many attempts to Facebook me, my brokers kept the visit small and intimate. Laughed big fat clown tears for most of the trip -exhausting in the best way.
Seattle
Work trip - always a pleasure to be in moderate climate in January, it's like the spring we never get in Montreal. Stayed on the waterfront - not sunny, but i love the dramatic grey against the water. Had surprise gifts waiting at Pike Market thanks to some friends who live nearby. Will have to re-visit and spend more time exploring, nice vibe.
question of the day(s) ahead:
"My purest enthusiasm" is...
