I have arrived in Europe!

December 28th I was greeted at the Zurich airport by my dear friends, Katarina & Chris, and 2 of my godchildren, Marcus (3 years) and Lily (1 year). The family transfered from Toronto this past May and will be in Zurich for 3 years.  Today I have have spent some time walking the Zurich "proper" area and some time at home with the family....in fact 3 of us just finished our 3rd bottle of wine!

                                           I would like to introduce you to "Angel D". One
                                           of my longest friends, Dana, gave me the ornament
                                           hanging on the left hand side of this photo. I will
                                           be making a conscious effort to have "Angel D"
                                           in my photos through my travels when I cannot
                                           appear:) Thanks for the memento Dana!

                                           I have been inundated with chocolate since I have
                                           arrived....I know, you are starting to feel sorry for me!

                                           Just one of the stunning store fronts of a Zurich
                                           chocolate and candy store!

Fisher Family Christmas

It has been a great opportunity to see my family one last time before I leave for Zurich tomorrow.
The Fisher Family Christmas included 17 adults and 2 kids, plenty of libations and delicious turkey. It makes for a great party and its fun to have time with the kids!

                                                      My cousins Jennifer & Katie

                                                  Grandma Fisher & my cousin Kevin

Merry Christmas!

December 24th I celebrated christmas at my Cousin Melissa's brand new house with my mom's side of the family. From top to bottom, here are photos of me with my Aunt Arlene & Cousin Melissa, Aunt Arlene with Clover (nicknamed "the bear") and me with Melissa's husband Ian.....and yes, those are chopsticks coming out of my hair. Someone thought that would look good with my asian top from Hong Kong.....I think their right?

I have never had so much fun in my life. Thanks to my new friends in the group photo below: David, Scott, Gill, Carlos, Darin & Dennis. We visited St Thomas, St. Croix, Dominica, Antigua & Grenada.

Carribean Cruise December 11th - 18th

I have just returned from a Caribbean cruise. I met up with a girl named Gill from Vancouver Island. We had never met before and were connected by our mutual friend Erika. The first night on the ship we made friends with the 5 guys in the photo and this became our family for the week. So many laughs, martinis and lots of dancing through the week.
