Our Cuban Adoption
Meet Oliver, the Havanese wonder! After months of searching for a small, fuzzy Cuban, we found one here in Naples from a local breeder. He is absolutely adorable, potty trained (for potty pads), and has enormous energy bursts where he'll run full rocket speed and leap into his bed to just roll around, and then fall asleep. He is twelve weeks old, and has four siblings and parents in town who he sees three times a week at "daycare".....yes, daycare. His parents, Helen & Rio, are Westminister show dogs that have retired from showing, but now breeding which seems they are savoring the finer things in life.
Oliver is pretty easy, so has already been given full access to patios and some restaurants here in Naples. He is hypoallergenic for those of you that plan on getting to Naples to visit. He has been sleeping throughout the night, but still has his puppy moments, some less to be desired. However, he brings such laughter and joy, and such a change in pace for us. He has requested to join us in Napa for the October Cabernet harvest, but his parents are requesting he stay with them for the week. We'll see.....we're getting quite attached!

Tasting the Land Life
Alas, sorry for the lack of blog, but
land life contributes to lack of time, less
awareness, and less consciousnness. Things are quite fabulous,
however, just different. And,
as expected, very very different. Having spent the last
year working as a chef on private motor yachts, and now,
awaking every day in my own bed living near the beach, but
not responsible for anyone's crepes or cafe americano or better
yet, morning yoga lessons....well, do I need to
say more?
I have debated some things, like well, do I write the book of all
books, where we expose the secrets of the lifestyles of the yacht folk rich and
famous? Or, do I just blog from episode to episode of my daily journal
of which I have at least one year of amazing stories of the most superfulous
people in the world?
Deon and I have contemplated both, and have decided to think on such things for a bit, but welcome your feedback. In the meantime, how about Napa for Cabernet harvest season the sixth through the eighth of October?
The itinerary will be fabulous, and if not, Africa will be blogged in the month of March and April of 2011.
PS. New pictures of Mexico a few weeks ago and the 5 ft Wahoo caught in Puerto Morellos...
