HOLIDAY WEEKEND

This weekend I'll be soaking up the sun in Santa Monica with my guy. Looking forward to the beach, great food and seeing our fur babies enjoy the ocean too! Yep, we are bringing the mutts! Pet friendly hotels are awesome.

Have a wonderful holiday!

RECENT TRAVELS

I wanted to share some photos from my recent girls trip to Coronado.

Riding bikes along the bay....beautiful weather!

Someone gets up extra early to write beautiful things with sand along the paths

Coronado Beach, CA

If you have been to Coronado you know how amazing the homes on the island can be. This was one of my favorites from last years visit. I did find a mediterranean style home that I loved far more than this gem. It was right near the beach, and for sale for a mere 10.7 mil.

Every Sunday there is live music in the park. Just bring a blanket and some food and you've got yourself a picnic in the park! It's a lot of fun and great people watching.

Have you ever been to Coronado?

SPACE LOVE + TRAVEL

Beautiful blues, greens pops of fuschia and orange make this room fabulous. Not to mention the chevron wood floors and the glossy walls.

*Special thanks to Ashlina the decorista for giving me a head start on go to spot's in Palm Springs when I visited last weekend. She is such a doll!

It was my first time in Palm Springs and we did not have enough time to cover it all, but managed to do some shopping at the Cabazon outlets and had lunch at Norma's at the Parker {see image below}. Palm Springs was just lovely, and I will be back!

***OH & tomorrow I am going to LA for the first time EVER {I know} on a business trip. Photo's to follow. :)

B a h a m a s 2009

Every morning on my Bahamas trip started this way....a hot cup of joe and the ocean. Our hotel has a boardwalk that goes right along the beach. I went parasailing & snorkeling for the first time, both were an AMAZING experience. I saw beautiful fish from every color in the rainbow.

The Bahamas was a great experience and I will definitely be going back. With 700 islands and more than 1200 Keys and Cays...there is so much more to see!

I'm ready for my next travel adventure....

London

London is amazingly beautiful.

I have visited only once before, and would love to go back. [Or I should say I will go back!] I came across this picture while browsing flickr. I have pictures of me standing on this bridge (Westminister Bridge). It was amazing though, the culture, the city all the luscious green Parks that go on for what looks like miles through the city...Everywhere you look something beautiful and so full of history.

I have the T R A V E L itch. Must get my F I X soon.

I am Going to VEGAS this Friday for a Bachlorette Party Weekend!! Woo Hoo.
