Japanese Cherry Trees

Do my eyes deceive me? I see a lady climbing stairs to join other people already in the tree. Do you think that this is real or photo shopped?

Blue Agave


The blue agave plant is used to make agave nectar which is a liquid sugar like honey.  I use it all the time since it is a low glycemic sugar.
They cut off the agave leaves and extract the agave in the which they make tequila.
There were four types of tequila there for tasting; one was Almond flavored tequila. I don't imbibe but my new friends from Australia said they'd drink my shots.

Million Dollar Homes



This home was for sale for 2 million.  Any takers?


The views were stunning.

Tapestry




This home had a cascading waterfall.

Vallarta Plaza

I put this on automatic timer and date so we shall see if it works. I tried it once before and it didn't work but one of my blog friends uses the auto schedule.
I love this - looking back at Puerto Vallarta.

Does anyone out there know how to make it work?

Leaving


Leaving Cabo San Lucas, Mexico with such delightful memories.




By the time we got to Puerta Vallarta, our little group of foursome split up for the day. Sandy and Hank decided to go zip lining; I have no idea what Dennis did but I took a tour of Puerta Vallarta and met a really fun couple (Heather and Ian) from Australia.


We visited a very beautiful old Catholic church after pass through old town. 



May we all celebration His birth and what our Savior did for us this Christmas. I am off to Monterey again so this Friday's bliss list is going to be with my family.

The Night Before Christmas

I am just thrilled.  I have no copies of Christmas books because my daughter has them all. She even took my Harry Potter books and didn't return them.


I won a book contest "The Night before Christmas", copyrighted in 1949, from a dear blogger friend, Donna. Her blog An Enchanted Cottage is a delightful blog and like me, she likes cats, dogs and all sorts of cuddly animals. Just like my cat, as soon as you put up the Christmas tree, she adopts the tree - it belongs to her. I noticed that Donna's cat does the same thing. So a great big thank you, Donna for such a nice gift!
