Our family life in the tropics. Lots of music, art, gardening, cooking, traveling, ponderings, and joy. Creating memories, traditions
and hopefully some humor. Trying to give back as well.

isola di sant'elena








Everywhere we went we discovered great parks. It didn't matter that our kids didn't speak Italian. Joy and inclusiveness are part of a universal language.

murano







We took a taxi boat over to Murano, to see a place where the same family has been glassblowing for many generations. They gave a demonstration and our children listened intently. My husband's grandfather was a glassblower. Murano is a charming beautiful town. The boys loved the boat ride.
