Have you all seen the MasterCard adverts? I have a new idea for them: Having your best friend visiting your expat home in France... - Priceless!!
Heidi and I had a great time the past 7 days. Well, I did at least so maybe it's better asking her for her opinion. The general activities were: 1) beach, sun, wine 2) beach, sightseeing, wine 3) resolving the world's problems on the beach and reading on the terrace with a glass of pastis ... and the days flew by. Oh, not to forget she is a great shopping support - she'll convince you to buy an expensive leather handbag with matching shoes any day! (I'm SO looking fabulous when I'm in Milan this evening - a bit Sex & the City Carrie-like with new Manolos)

So I thought I'd have more time to blog lately. There are posts I've had maturing in my little head for some time and I wanted to share but unless I have an Internet connection in the Azores that might be difficult. L needs to work there and I'm there for moral support and working my tan.
Seriously, I'm really curious to see the volcanic islands and I've planned to rent a bike or car to get around. The Azores (Portuguese islands) are usually the last islands for sailboats crossing the Atlantic and there's a famous bar there called Peter's Bar where the boat members gather and leave the name of their boat on the walls. The islands are also famous for their flora since it's hot and sunny in the summers but humid. Hopefully I can tell you more about it when I get back or if there's an Internet point in the hotel (crossing my fingers!).
Now I'm off to manicure my hands before we're off to Milan for a wedding before taking the plane Monday morning to the Azores. Pheeew, life is busy for a girl with new leather shoes and a matching handbag... :)

I had a GREAT time!!!I allready miss the fantastic weather and all the nice shops off course...with expensive leather handbags with matching shoes;-)
Priceless!
Sounds FABULOUS, Astrid!
Do you mean that you bought actual Manolos like Carrie Bradshaw, or do you mean that you bought fancy shoes like Carrie Bradshaw...?
Heidi:
Miss you babe! I hope your shoes are more comfortable than mine... At the moment it's best to stand still looking gorgeous than actually walking.... LOL :))
Joy:
Thank you, I hink so too :)
Liten Blaa Hoene:
If only they were Manolos but they are rather some bright red Minellis... ;) However the shoes and handbag got envious looks by the women I crossed on the streets of Milan last night. For once I felt fashionable enough in this city of fashion freaks!! Aha ha... :)
Hopefully, if the weather allows it for the next 6 days, I will find out if my shoes are comfortable or not;-)
