Things Happen for a Reason

Tuesday, June 28th, 2005

Its amazing how one door closes and another one opens.  Just when I think I’ll never meet someone and get asked out on a date, I mean a real one not a night in  the basement bedroom, I walk into the mall and run into an old crush.  What a shock it was when he asked me out!! I admit I’m still a little hesitant but if I take this one slow it shouldn’t end up like the last one. 

Friends with benefits means you do the occasional thing as friends.  I told him, the previous guy, it was coming but he didn’t listen.  I’m not going to be open to dating other people if I’m not being taken on dates too.  I’m sure all the folks from Jack’s know who I’m talking about.  The last straw was getting stood up on a Friday night with out even a call to say sorry.  MEN!!

Cuba!!

Cuba44 This was my first trip in about 9 yrs and I had a Blast!! Lovely and I stayed at the Beaches Resort in Varadero.  I read a lot of bad reviews so I was expecting horrid service and even worse food but I didn’t find that the case.  The food was edible and the staff was friendly.  I loved our beach.  May is the perfect time to go to Cuba.  Not as many people so you always have a chair on the beach.  My tan seems to have faded already but I’ll just have to hope the Canadian sun stays with us so I can get it back. 

We took 2 day trips.  One was to Cayo Blanco where I swam with the dolphins and ate lobster.  Yum! Our second trip was to Havana.  In Hanava we got to witness the culture of Cuba.  We visited both the old and the new city as well as took in the night show at the Tropicana.  I’ll go again but not next year.  There are far too many places I want to travel to.Dolphins

I want to do this again.  What an experience!!
