We needed some down time after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2. So we got a hotel minutes from the port to spend a few nights in. We started in Room2 in Southampton and it was an adorable hotel with a hipster vibe. We had an amazing suite in my favorite color. The pups …
What we expected and what we got on our transatlantic crossing were very different. We honestly didn’t know what to expect, except for rest and relaxation. And we did not get that. We decided to take the Queen Mary 2 to move to Europe so that we wouldn’t have to fly the pups at all. …
We arrived at the Empire Hotel in NYC on the 21st. It is right next to Lincoln Center and just a couple blocks from Central Park. We needed to be in NYC for the pups first veterinarian visit on the 22nd at Heart of Chelsea Veterinarian. Heart of Chelsea has a department that specializes in …

Well we’re still planning and things change almost daily. We do think we have a plan – but we have a few more Zoom meetings to make sure it will work before the decision is final. Why are our plans changing? Croatia is joining Schengen on January 1, 2023. So our plans of bouncing between …
Closing a chapter in your life is always painful and for me memories around closing of chapters always stay vivid in my mind. They are at least as vivid as the memories of the new chapters. But that’s only true when you know the chapter is closing. Graduations, Divorces, Moves, etc. Not including marriage, I …
Things change. After the last several years we know that better than most. We’ve been planning a move to Spain for several years.
