The Rambling DawgOn our first full day at Hacienda Del Mar, I chose to shower in the main bathroom, while Señora Luvely used the shower in our bedroom (it was a 2 BR, 3 Bath condo). As I walked back into the bedroom, I heard miserable moans and groans echoing out of the shower stall. “What’s wrong” […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to penetrate the Club Orient grounds. Pass the Hotel Guests Only sign and follow the waterline to the end of the beach. Once inside, you must find out what they are hiding, besides their clothes. The rest of Orient […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 I arrived at a deserted beach at 5:30 AM and witnessed the most beautiful sunrise I had seen all week. With high thin clouds on the horizon, the sun came up as a brilliant orange/pink glowing ball. After the sun was up, I decided to resume The Salutation […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 I left the room at 5:45 and returned to my favorite sunrise photo spot, the rocks at Coco Beach, where I captured some great new sunrise shots on my digital SLR. Afterward, I took my customary beach walk the length of the beach and back. I had become […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 I jumped out of bed at 5:30, well before sunrise. I grabbed the camera and made my way down to the newly identified sunrise photo spot … the Coco Beach rocks. I could tell the sunrise was going to be divine. I began snapping photos when I could […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 My internal clock woke me at 5:45, signaling the start of my solitary hours, before the ladies arose. I headed to the beach for my first photos of a Saint Martin sunrise, which was beautiful that day. However, being my first SXM daybreak event, I wasted plenty of […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 I was up late again at 7:00 AM, took a short walk on the beach and then awakened the ladies at their requested time, so we could be shopping in Philipsburg at 9:00. Showers, makeup, breakfast, traffic and viola, we were standing on Front Street in Philipsburg at […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 We decided to sleep in, considering the late arrival the previous night, so I was up at a very late 6:45 AM. I quickly took my first glimpse of the ocean from our balcony and then decided to take a stroll on the beach, while Madam Luvely and […]
Adventures in Los Cabos – February 2009 We arrived (Dawg and wife, Señora Luvely) at Denver International Airport and had just made our way through security to the terminal. As I was leaving the men’s room, Señora Luvely approached me and said “did you hear them page us over the intercom?” Now worried, we arrived […]
Adventures in Saint Martin – April 2007 We awakened excitedly at 4:45 to the expected 15 hour travel time from our front door in to the hotel. I checked the flights online and to our horror, the first flight is delayed 3 hours. That will ensure that we miss the second leg from Dallas to […]
