I need to give myself more chances to nap on the beach ……

A palm tree husk makes a great beer holder …..

And a chatty parrot makes a hell of a great bar friend …..

As does this guy ……

Jimmy Buffett is universal……

And apparently, so is Bobby McFerrin …

No matter how far away you think you are ….

Sometimes a little piece of home is right there with you …..

A job that you can dance at is a great job to have …..

And if my mother drinks one of these ……

She’ll wear a pirate hat …..

I reinforced my choice of favorite time zone …..

And I remembered that sometimes, anything goes…..and that’s ok …..

I learned that paradise doesn’t have to cost a fortune…..

Especially if you know where to shop ……

And it’s true, women in every country do love them some cute shoes, y’all ….

And men ? Well, a picture’s worth a thousand words……

I learned that when I pay in pesos my bar bill is OUTRAGEOUS !

I’m still always ready to start my next adventure   ….

And that my feet like the first part of this sign the best …..

And that sometimes it’s nice to sit quietly and watch the sunset while thinking about the ones you love …..

And that no matter where you go and what you do, someone (or two) is always happy to see you come home ……
