Bear decor to the nines. I especially loved their carpet and wooden bear statue in their lobby (sorry I have no photo of their bear statue). The hotel room was neat and clean and we had a good breakfast. I wish the mattress could have been softer. The staff was helpful and friendly. The parking …
Exotic Rugs Lindau Island, Germany
Right after dinner at Rost Bar, I decided I had to get a closer look… Aren’t they beautiful? I can’t believe how nice these pics came out; it seems almost as if we were inside the store. The store was closed since it was almost midnight. *Photocredit: Andrew G.
Freiburg in Breisgau, Germany
Here are some pictures of sidewalk mosaic art from the enchanting town of Freiburg (located on the western edge of the Black Forest). We were quite impressed that everything was so well maintained. It’s a very old town founded in 1120 and my favorite place in Germany so far. There are unique gutters which run …
Prana Accessories
I admit that I don’t do yoga or pilates but I love the clothing and accessories associated with them. Yoga clothing is really comfortable so now I make it a point to wear it during my travels abroad (especially for long car or plane rides). I love Beyond Yoga and Prana. I also love Title …

You can customize any way you like =)! More companies should come out with magnetic compacts such as this one. The Beauty Box System Mosaic …
Back from Southern Germany
I just came back from a short trip to Germany (November 6 to November 16). I’m still a little jet-lagged. I think my jet lag has been getting worse with each successive trip =(. Any suggestions for preventing jet lag? Please write me. My head is in such a funk now =(. Anyway, here are …
Colleen Moore’s Fairy Castle
My husband and I visited Chicago’s Museum of Science & Industry in 2005 to especially see Colleen Moore’s Fairy Castle. I purchased Within the Fairy Castle: Colleen Moore’s Doll House at the Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago (Hardcover) by Terry Ann R. Neff (Author), Michael T. Sarna (Foreword), Barbara Karant (Photographer) five years before …
Tarrytown Marina
We ended up hanging out at the park near the Tarrytown Marina this past weekend. There were lots of interesting and beautiful ships at this marina. It brought back memories of the first “tuna” I ever caught off the side of a friend’s boat in 1999. The fish were not biting that day, so I …
