Sicko

I have too much to say about this one, but not now.

3 of 5 stars.

Le Tour 2007: C’est lui

The farce that is pro cycling ends. The current leader of the tour gets fired by his team. He wins today’s stage, but loses it all out.

I am so disappointed. I love watching the tour. I love watching pro cycling. Even if it’s boring to others, I find it exciting personally. I always wondered how they do it. Now we know.

Vinokourov out. Rasmussen out. Who’s next? Is even Lance Armstrong innocent? We know Landis was caught. It puts everyone in the sport in a bad position. It puts the sport in a bad position. WTF?! It’s sad.

Up until today le Tour was awesome. The alps. Rasmussen in yellow. The first time trial. The Pyrannees. Rasmussen v. Contador. Everything was exciting. The cycling was phenomenal. WTF? How did it come to this?

They really need to clean this sport up. I am sad again.

Our horseback riding guides

July 7, 2007
7:10 Ready for horses. Yesterday rode a bike on Water Island. Stacey was a guide and Jim was a hippy. Short ride about 3 miles. Ended up on Honeymoon beach. Swam in a thunderstorm.

Honest Perry Smith.

7:37 Bought a piece of art at the auction yesterday. How am I going to bring it home? I am getting heavier with all the eating. Well, we’re in the St. Thomas US V.I. Will be biking today.

1:15 Toured St. Thomas. Perry was our guide. Megan’s Bay public beach. Blacknbeard and Bluebeard. Not too much pirates.

Expelliarmus

Home with the rest of the muggles. Harry may be dead. Or may not be. I’ll have to wait to read the book. All over the world, little kids and the older versions are diving into the last book and finding some fun. Yet it must be a bitter ending. Years for this and it ends for them this tonight.

Sad.

It’s so final.

Caribbean Cruise 2005: The Bahamas

Pirates!

7:51 Breakfast. Again. Wakeup early and ran (or ran/walked) 15 laps at 6:00 am. The sign says 9 laps is a mile.

Breakfasted at 7:00 and was seated with Jerry and Lorraine from Boston. Coming alone meaans you will be seated w/others.

Nassau. Going to another Blue Lagoon

9:45 Missed the boat again! Confusion on getting off the boat. Forgot my ID. How do we get off this ship!

Waiting now for the boats to the Blue Lagoon. Should be any moment.

8:43 Formal dinner and I am full. Blue Lagoon supremely disappointing. No food. No drink until the end. What a ripoff of $40. A luke warm stream
