Yoga Beach Vacation with Yogaville

Here it is, in one tidy package. All donations accepted!

Flying From Snow

Here it is, folks. The wish of the day.

Sunset on the bay

Even though it was a rainy day, there was a dramatic sunset to be had on the Chesapeake bay.

Costa Rica!

Cheap deals drive me to the beach. Or fly me, anyway. One of the first, real vacations I bought came from a radio announcement of a special package deal to the Bahamas. I thought about it for five minutes and then picked up the phone. It was a great vacation, once they got our hotel and room sorted out. Returning was not so cool. It was a charter cruise and they herded us like cattle.

Anyway, all those little details fade away when I remember all the fun I had on the Robinson Crusoe cruise, the markets, helpful natives, eating conch, and laying on the beach sucking back Bahama Mamas.

Here's another goodie! Costa Rica* at about the same price I paid for the Bahamas so many years ago. Of course, by the time you pay for everything (food, souvenirs, side trips, etc.) you've spent double the price. Who cares!

*You'll need to create a Travel Zoo account to see the full deal. Your mileage may vary as the price alters depending on your departure city.

Bahamas! Anytime!

Such a deal! It hurts to be penniless.

Yoga: The Luxurious Path

Ah, yes! I need this break so badly. I'm incredibly out of shape from forgoing too many daily walks while snowed in. I'm also feeling just a touch of isolation. Going away to an exclusive resort with fellow yoga buffs is perfect! Let's go together!

A Real Vacation

Next week I'll be spending a few days in Coralla NC, part of the Outer Banks vacation area. Even though we have Virginia Beach close by, many from the Richmond area seem to end up at the Outer Banks (if the number of OBX stickers on cars is any indication). I'll be staying in one of those beach rentals with my mother and visiting my son and his family. Hopefully I will get a lot of sun – not that I've had a lack of it this year, yet more is always good. Hopefully I will get to lay on the beach and do some salt water swimming.
