I want to make my living as a writer and I want to write about things that have some bearing on my day-to-day living experience, like food, travel, funny observations or perhaps any observations. If you have happened upon my blog, like it, and are in a position to give me a job as a writer, please, please do at least give it some consideration.

What Europeans do mean by "All Inclusive" are things like

What they do mean by "All Inclusive" at least at the Appolonia Beach Hotel in Amadara Crete is

Incredible landscape

Views ensured, even if you're already outside

A white horse - I mean yes yes, probably most all inclusive have a white horse, but this one slept outside under the trees with the hotel dog,

All the alcohol a girl can drink in a week, and let me tell you, between me and Corrie we got some value for dollar, yes we did. Proud to say it too.


This is just a dining room, what's funny about it, is that it is not the dining room where we were supposed to be eating. There was another all inclusive right next to ours. On our first day there, we were wondering around, turns out around the wrong campus, and just stopped for breakfast in what was obviously the place to eat. I'm so glad it was a mistake (all though no one stopped us or inquired after our blue bracelets - everyone there was wearing yellow - huh, would have been easy to pilfer) because the food was gross. The next morning, we were much relieved to have a beautiful breakfast at our joint.
Of course roses were plentiful and the views were inspiring.

Four pools, but this was the prettiest.


And the best of all, this resort had an Irish guy that, I thought, looked a fair bit like my uncle Dave. At the time of the sighting, I thought he looked exactly like my uncle Dave, but after the wine wore off, I see that it's just a likeness. Still, it was really funny asking this very nice Irish man who lives North of Belfast if he would take a picture with me because he reminded me of my Uncle Dave. He was humoring me for sure. Quite a lovely hug isn't it? :) Very Uncley.

I miss you so much Beck, and I just rediscovered your Blog!!! You look positively happy and wonderful.....especially in your pretty dress and lace up high heels in Crete : ) Please don't go loving it in Merry Old England so much that you never return home to the fabulous midwest. I feel like now is the time for me to sing you the accoustic version of Kenny Chesney's "Please come to Boston...." (of course I would replace it with Minnesota) I saw him in concert again, and he did that song. Made me almost wet my pants. I love and miss you terribly. I think that I will talk Joal into a trip.
