flying
always a miracle to me
here i sit
above the clouds
an intruder
to a world that was not meant for me
flying
always a miracle to me
even when i fly back
to snow
and ice
and cold

jour 28::365
jour 27::365
our winter escape
comes to an end
an end
which will no doubt lead
to another beginning
farewell miami
it's been swell
jour 26::365
i am not addicted
to running
however i may be addicted
to medals
all i can say is:
ta-da!!
i did it.
and i did it better than i'd ever done it before
finishing with a personal record
21.1 km in 2:18:03
miami puts on a great race
and i suspect
we will run there again
someday
jour 25::365
had you told me
just five years ago
that i would
one day
be a runner
i would have laughed
at you
and said: never.
and yet
here i am
at the race expo
for the miami half-marathon
never say never
pick up a pair of shoes
and
just run.
jour 24::365
off the coast
of key west
half-day snorkeling tour
40$
wet suit rental
$10
clearly seeing the magical underwater world of a live coral reef
priceless
as i was floating
taking in the other-worldly colours
and the textures
and the silence
i told myself:
THIS makes the laser-eye surgery
worth every penny
(read more about the Sand Key Light...)
jour 23::365
hubby's delight
was to find
a great little coffee shop
within walking distance
of our resort
what's not to love
about a coffee shop
that demands
complete confidentiality
from its customers?
jour 22::365
a winter escape
beckons
who are we
to resist?
i am smitten
with the aqua barriers
that lead us
south
away from snow
away from ice
away from home
just for a while
a winter escape
beckons...
