Rejuvinated and ready for another week...

So the spa was fabulous. How could it not be...?

Well, I did a double take when the person who came to get me out of the quiet area turned out to be a guy. Never had a guy give me a massage before, well at least it wasn't a bikini wax. ROFLMAO His name is Steve and he was very professional and turned out to be the lucky guy who gave me the Apple Body Wrap to boot. When all was massaged, wrapped, heated up, showered off and lotioned all I needed was a side of Vanilla Ice Cream. All that apple scent and being wrapped up in hot towels made me feel like an Apple Pie. LOL

We also stayed overnight and had a great nights sleep after a late wonderful dinner at Fino's. I had a divine Crab Panini, (thanks Amy for turning me on to those awesome sandwiches again!). Breakfast was also included and we enjoyed a beautiful view out to Bellingham Bay watching the ducks and other birds frolick in the water. The breakfast buffet was quite nice, I would recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable light meal in the AM.

Today I finally managed to finish the wall hanging I started out before Christmas as a gift for Grace' cousin. I just didn't have enough photos of the guy to complete it and his parents didn't pull through for me, although Grandma did after an SOS e-mail plea. Thanks G-ma!

So here it is:

What do you think? I love it...but of course I am biased.

Dancing with the STARS! (or not...)

We had our first Salsa dance lesson yesterday and I must say it was quite different than what I expected...

There were of course way more women than men and that resulted in my dancing with quite a few female partners. Interesting. It was also interesting to observe my husband dancing with some women and girls that he did not know and to watch his reaction to that... Our friends Troy and Aubrey joined us for the class (well, we bought them the lessons as a Christmas Gift, so they had little choice! LOL). Troy is not very comfortable and he had sweaty palms all night. ;)

At the end of the 1 1/2 hour session we had learned the basic step and a spin. So now we just need to practice.

Today Martin & I are off to visit a local spa/hotel for the night. Last year at the Mighty Max Crop hosted by Treasury of Memories, (there will be one in April again this year!), I won a raffle for a free overnight stay with two massages and breakfast. So we are heading off to be pampered and hopefully relaxed by the time we return to the real world tomorrow afternoon.
