Ten days rest is enough, it's time to get off the table and get back to work!

Winter arrived to Atlanta, I'm wearing so many layers that I look like a football.

The 5:00 Weather Lady just told me we were the same temperature as Atlanta. I think this is pretty comfortable.

Hmm - late to the thread as always - great to put faces on the screen names. This one is one of me hiking in Mallorca last summer - was part of our Christmas Card picture set this year:

North of Alcudia - there's a hike up the cliffs to overlook a small Spanish naval base with a small harbor and yacht club - the end of the hike is quite high. There is a small 'natural' tunnel along with some 'via ferrata' cables to help you get to the end of the hike.
Was an awesome hike - we went on several - we drove all over the island, hiked near Deia, went to the market in Alcudia, bought pearls at the factory inland, walked in Palma and swam at many beaches....all in one weekend (we're crazy Americans). We really liked that trip for the variety of things we could do - and of course we enjoyed the seafood and wine.
We also liked our trip to Algarve - similar food and we loved the Vino Verde there. The seafood was awesome and the beaches were divine. We also liked going to the most western point where a huge compass rose had been built by a famous sea navigator (names are lost now, unfortunately - Vasco De Gama perhaps?).
Biggest problem for me was I was mixing my languages - Spanish, German and English - ugghh - but we got along fine and emjoyed ourselves immensely.

No he doesn't, IMO! He looks like he thinks she is quite the catch. Also I think they are a great looking couple.
