December

There's something about the coming of winter that makes me want to hole up in a warm cafe with a good book and a strong cup of coffee. Well, just about every season has that effect on me but I'm focusing on cool, sunny mornings here. 

Here are some pictures of one such morning at Reynards, in the beautifully industrial Wythe Hotel.

Maho Beach

Have you ever heard of Maho Beach in St. Maarten? The airport is just a few feet away from the beach. When we arrived, a plane flew right by our hotel room window giving us quit the thrill! It was exciting to watch the landings each day from my lounge chair, but pretty scary when I got too close.
