...just checking in

After a much needed break, back to reality! Plenty of wine and champagne were present, and I fell in love with a lobster and crab burger (paired with a California Pinot....WOW! ).

Saw quite a bit of Rolex and Tudor watches; and AD's stock on Tudor was impressive!!!!!

let me be honest, I was exhausted. The last weeks, I took 10 flights per week visiting at least 4 countries each 7 days. So having great meals and drinks (and no flights for 6 days) meant a mini-vacation to me.

That is just what I did. Took days off and threw my cell @ hotel safe box on friday afternoon. Did not take it out until monday morning. The BEST way to relax!

Gerardo,
Glad to see you're doing well and enjoying great odor and wine. Safe travels, and great looking wrist shot.

30 flights in 3 weeks? Seems overkill. Glad to see you know how to relax when you get the opportunity to do so.

Watch looks fantastic. :-D
