Summer has been an amazing time for us this year, at least so far! July 1st weekend saw us hosting 20+ family at Buck Lake for a memorial to Ash's mom. Despite our loss we shared some great memories of Dhadima/Nanima and also got some water activities in as well.
The weather has been hot and sunny for most of July, allowing us some great days at Buck Lake with some golf mornings thrown in. Suniel joined us for several days leading up to Ash's birthday so some quality family time was had as well (often enjoying leasurely lunches in downtown Kingston with wine). My girlfriend Carol joined us at the cottage for an evening so lots of laughs were shared.
The last weekend of Ash's vacation saw us in Montreal, golfing with the newphews and visiting Gita in the hospital - she managed to have her gall bladder attack while we were visiting. At least it wasn't MY cooking!
The end of July has taken us to England to cousin Kiren's wedding at Monkey Island. Two days in London partying/sightseeing/pubbing with friends Tom & Helen from Copenhagen led into two days of family visits, culminating with a gorgeous wedding on an island. We also toured Windsor Castle with the Passis, and caught up on all of our lives.
Next was a three day stop in St. Lucia in the Caribbean (BA directly from London, how convenient!) - a longtime desired visit for Ash. The scenery and weather has again been gorgeous, and our hotel fantastic. Outdoor rooms, but with butler service - how decadent!
We will end our journey with a stopover in Miami Beach, hoping to finally find some art or photos for the condo living room, and joining Stephanie for two nights. We will need long walks on the boardwalk to compensate for the calories consumed (both food and liquid) on this trip, before we head home and back to work for Ash. Hopefully the pictures soon to be posted will accurately reflect the amazing time and views we have had on this, yet another amazing trip!
