{My 25th American Airlines AAdvantage Program Anniversary}

Like husband and partner Pieter, last year in February, I too reached another milestone; literally this time! For flying 25 years with American Airlines. They did send me a very nice recognition. If you click the link to the 25th anniversary for Pieter below, you find out more about our personal life as partner together.

Yep, I am also close to having my 70,000 frequent flyer miles together for another free flight to e.g. Curaçao for two! We have such excellent memories of our last trip; will post more about it soon.

{Friends' son, Ben Lovett, won most awards with Ghost of Old Highways!}

What a week... Tough enough coming back from a 9-day vacation in Paradise on the island of Curaçao and catching up on LOTS of things. But on top of all that, I had to have the Hard Drive replaced. That problem occurred when we'd gotten back from Macon on Sunday, February 18, from the Macon Mix International Short Film Festival where Ben Lovett, ←(click it) the son of our dear friends, won the most awards with his short film Ghost of Old Highways, as he did win before in Charlotte, NC. He's also having an Australian Premiere at the Byron Bay Film Festival. Due to my PC problems and limited time before the trip, I am a bit late for posting this but anyway here it is!

Watch below his YouTube version

Both of us enjoyed this International Short Film Festival so much and we are very proud of the Ben Lovett! Knowing him since he was about 5 years of age. That is always special! He is the same age as our foster daughter Anita.
This short movie is such a burst of Action, Music and even Historic Information...

{Pearls of Wisdom}

Wow, what a feeling for having all the followers back on Blogger with the Google Friend Connect Gadget. Also the Recent Comments on the Sidebar show up again. Coming back from vacation it is never fun to find Blogger problems on top of all the other chores that are waiting for you. BUT, thanks to some Pearls of Wisdom from sweet blogger friend Rebecca from A Gathering Place (click IS YOUR FOLLOWER GADGET MISSING? - IF SO... DO THIS), I at least got the Google Friend Connect Gadget back on. THANKS sweet Rebecca; I owe you!

Lovely PEARLS!

Another problem I already had before I went on vacation to Curaçao was that I no longer could add or delete any blogs I follow, on my Sidebar. So I did copy all the URLs and deleted the 'broken' gadget and replaced it with a new one. Hope it will be possible now to add new URLs, or delete...

Blogger has robbed all of us from quite some precious time at one point or another.

But today I'm looking again at my followers...

The weather is great, after coming home from the tropics this is a treat! At 7:00 PM still 23°C or 73°F. 

Curaçao had daily 29°C or 84°F and 25°C or 77°F at night...

March 8, I had country # 155; Bhutan from Countries Visited

This gadget has been working fine since July 10, 2011.

Wishing you a great weekend!
