I am off to Nassau, The Bahamas today, and not back until late Saturday. It is lovely having a husband who has to travel (a bit) for his job, and I get to go along with him.
I will return next week and show you all the interesting things we saw and did on this very short trip.
P.S. I am not taking this helicopter, or this boat, they happened to be at the yacht club when I was laying on the beach and I got the photo. I think the helicopter was in for the Talisker Atlantic Challenge. The rowboats have been landing all week after rowing across the Atlantic Ocean, can you imagine?

I am a floral designer living in a tiny condo in downtown Toronto, Canada's largest city. But on the weekend, I am a gardener/frustrated architect trying to keep up with a 3/4 acre garden in Owen Sound, Ontario, a warm (to Canadians, Zone 5b, and a cold (to Americans, Zone 4b) garden.

I was really wondering about the little black helicopter and the gin palace behind and thinking holey moley a portal to a different world indeed. Look forward to seeing pics of Nassau – went there when I was 3 and have dim memories indeed.

It certainly is a different world here. There was just a Russian billionaire here, his yacht had 2 helipads, 2 swimming pools, and a three man sub.

Well, the Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous did film here, many years ago. I used to love that show, never dreamed that one day I would be sitting where Robin Leach did, lol.

Deborah, I hope you had a great time in Nassau. I don’t know if you’ve seen the Versatile Blogger award going around (or perhaps have already been so honored). Anyway, I’ve named you as one of my “versatile bloggrs.” You can learn more here: http://jeansgarden.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/versatility/
No Pressure on this; I am not offended at all if people choose to ignore these awards. -Jean

Jean, thank you so much for thinking of me, the award is quite an honour. I no longer participate in these, but appreciate the thought.
