In the garden at Round Hill Hotel & Villas |
Winter was also packed with travel. I went to Jamaica and Indianapolis for work and then we spent Easter in South Carolina with family. Jamaica met and exceeded my expectations. I traveled with a group of writers and we stayed at Round Hill Hotel & Villas, swam in a natural plunge pool, and had the most amazing farm-grown and home-cooked meal with one of the coolest couples I've ever met.
I've officially added Jamaica to my "If I weren't Croatian" list. Meaning, if I weren't Croatian, I'd want to be Jamaican. (Also on that list: Irish, Scottish, and a hot Latina.) Jamaicans are some of the warmest, happiest and funniest people I've met. They're also really proud to be Jamaican, which I love.

Riding in an IndyCar! |
After sunny Jamaica, it was back to chilly NYC and then on to chillier Indianapolis. I can't wait to share all of my cool Indy findings with you guys! I was lucky enough to be able to bring the husband along on this trip. We spent two nights at The Alexander, an awesome art-filled hotel downtown, and ate our way through the city. AND - one of my top 10 most memorable life moments - toured downtown in an actual IndyCar!
(Thank you to Morgan at Visit Indy for scoring me some serious cool wife points.)
I've got a couple trips on the schedule in April but after that things will settle down for a while. I'm looking forward to spring and (part of) summer in New York, and am especially excited because my parents are visiting in May! I've already pretty much planned our entire weekend together...
Making friends in Central Park. The Hans Christian Andersen statue is one of my favorites! |

But now, thankfully, it looks more like this:
Spring in NYC! |
And, finally, because I am easily amused:
