More Pictures from Ski Trip 2009

More random pictures of the trip. My camera was not charged for 85% of this trip. So I didn't get many of me actually on the mountain...of course when I found a connector I had already injured myself. So, you will notice some fun postcard pictures of my recovery room/condo. lol
Our first evening, Myers had organized a SEAFOOD dinner...my thinking was really?, we came to Colorado to eat Lobster? See the beach theme behind us? The food was alright, we had a long flight on the way in, so I was pretty tired at this point.
This was our traditional Bloody Mary drinking time at the airport. Yum Yum! This was obviously a very early flight, I am still half asleep! Randolph, Drew & New Recruit Cole at dinner!
Post injury photo...pretty icicles!
Just looking down below at all the people who didn't tear their ACL's! :0(
My Master Suite-All to myself! It did NOT suck!
A little reflective photography! It was a small loft, but yes very cute and pretty modern. The guys condo was more on the, That 70's Show era.
The snow really was beautiful and we actually saw some blue skies our last day! See it way back there.
Cedric the traveling gnome was anxious to go home since I was injured! :o)

Have a good weekend everyone, I have my appointment with the orthopedic surgeon on Monday!

Jamaica in Pictures! (Part one of many)

I AM BACK!!!!
On our way to Jamaica! Saying goodbye to the Texas Coast. Please note this is the first trip I've been on where I may actually have to use the "floatation device" and I was a bit nervous! What a view though. We were so excited to be going to beautiful Jamaica!
Filling out our forms, I couldn't help but laugh that they had an option to state that you were staying in a "DIVE/eco lodge". I've used the term dive before...but I've never had to stay in one.
Cedric the Traveling Gnome was thrilled to be in the air again. He loves to travel with Gina & I.
I am just amazed at how beautiful it is here and I hadn't even gotten off the plane yet!
The Palm Trees...ahh, gotta love it!
We stayed in Montego Bay our first couple nights at the Breezes Resort! I just love all inclusive.

Gina & I happy to be off that plane!

Our top flight security guard "Richardo" was very accommodating. We were welcomed with Champagne and fruit! What a warm welcome!

Of course after we got our wristbands we headed to the bar..Hooray for Red Stripe!

We then enjoyed our first Jamaican dinner. Jerk Chicken, Festival and fruits.

Then there is Jimmy Buffet's Margaritaville. This place was wild!

We took a bottom glass boat tour and it was very cool!
I love that you have the hills in the background.
More views from the boat! See all those fish below. They attacked that bread like there was no tomorrow! Our tour guide actually got under the boat with some bread in his mouth. I was thinking better him than I. I took a picture but the reflection of the glass makes it hard to see.
The next day we spent some time on the beach! So relaxing.
I really enjoyed my time in Montego Bay. We also did some snorkeling and such..Gina's friend has those pictures. Next time I go someplace like this, I am taking a waterproof camera.
I will have more pictures to come throughout the week...so please stayed tuned!

Port A

Where we stayed! This was such a beautiful house.
Our walk down to the beach. It was a very beautiful day out.
We had to take a break! LOL
Cederic was happy to be out and about! We forgot to take him to N.M. with us a couple of weeks ago. We love our traveling Gnome! :-)
Gigi & I having a good time!



We had a wonderful time in Port Aransas. I never realized this beach community is just a short drive from Corpus. We went out at 11:00am and stayed out there until 8:00pm. The weather was awesome. It was hot out but we had such an amazing breeze coming in that it was so very relaxing. We played on the Boogie Boards, Looked for seashells, played in the sand and simply relaxed.

The only down side to the trip is we came back minus 2 pairs of sunglasses and without my cell phone. Other than that, it was a wonderful trip and I can't wait to make it a part of my regular travels. It sure beats going to Galveston. I hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend as well. I am also so happy my P.I.C. Gina was able to take the day off and go with me. Thanks girl. You are the best.

Relaxing Girls Weekend

Dinner @ Landry's on the Riverwalk.
Gigi & I endorse the SMART car
The cute gazebo in the courtyard by our room
Gigi & Lalo (Both in Yellow!)

Lalo taking in the sunshine @ the Riverwalk. It was a beautiful day to enjoy the great outdoors!

Cedric enjoyed being in San Antonio too! His next trip is New Mexico.

I was able to score my HRC Pilsner & Shot glasses. I now collect them thanks in part to my sis getting me started on it. I am running out of room to put these things.

People were waiting for the "Fiesta" Parade to start for hours, some people waited for days.

We had a very nice time. You all know how I love being outside.

Cederic's First Plane Ride 1-25-08 He holds a Window Seat Preference
No more Beer for Cederick, he is looking a little wasted here.

We had to stock the fridge for him. He sure loves Beer!

Cederick seemed to be pleased with his accomodations. Night stand between the beds!

Cederic's Bunk Mates!

Cederic insisted on taking pictures on the slope.

His view looking up the mountain
Cederick asks "Which way to Slope Side Bar & Grill"
Heading down the mountain for apres ski drinks
Feeling a little wind blown at this point.

We are on our way back to Texas!
