I've been daydreaming about spending a weekend at Long Bay Beach Resort on Tortola in the British Virgin Islands. Don't you think it would be just lovely to wake up in these little beachfront cabanas and go for a morning swim? I'm so ready!!!

 It has been almost 6 years since I lived in NYC and almost 3 since I've visited NYC. I just booked a trip to visit my family later in the summer in NJ and also plan on spending a few days walking the streets of New York. I had to look through my old photographs from back in the day when I was living there and thought I would share these.

PS Here are some photos of my family in NJ.

So, how was your weekend? I'm having that super Monday feeling, most likely cause I worked through the weekend. I've found that booking a trip helps me feel better about working, so I just booked a flight to visit my family later this summer, really! You should try it, the next time you feel over worked you should just book a trip to remind yourself why you're working so hard.
I also find looking at photos posted on Facebook by my friends really inspiring, like all the photos in this post. I'm not sure if it's ok to take my friends photos and repost them: what do you think? If you would like me to remove you're photo just let me know, I just found these photos so lovely and wishing I could spend the afternoon in them.
Hope everyone has a wonderful week!!!

This Saturday's full moon will be a 'super moon'; meaning that the moon will be the closest to the Earth all year. National Geographic says, "The moon's proximity won't have any major effects on our planet..." apparently they've never been on St Thomas during a 'normal' full moon - I'm a little curious how this Saturday evening will be:)
Diana on Express-O say's this extraordinary event will occur at exactly 11:35 pm ET. I hope we'll all be watching it together.


PS A 'normal' moonrise from my porch here.
