Ephesus: Just Like New York 2,000 Years Ago

Carnegie Rocks — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 17:14:46 +0000

This place was like New York City 2,000 years ago, They had plumbing and everything.

A lot of the houses and stores weren't is such great shape, but the marble city was magnificent

This is one of the biggest coliseums in the ancient world. The acosutics are still great!

All the roads were paved with marble. This was a wealthy and opulent city!

This nice lady was minding her sheep just accross from the entrance to the city. Baa!

The sky was wild all day the day we visited Ephesus. Very dramatic, huh?

During the day, the sun came out and it was gorgeous.

The sunset over the Agean Sea was special. too.

I Went on Vacation to Turkey

Carnegie Rocks — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 13:34:33 +0000

This is Marsha. The plane was gargantuan (500 peeps on the plane). That's why the engine is so big!

I was a good cat and I went to most of my Mom's lectures.

This is Mom doing her thing. She even got a very nice award!

Key West Is One of My Favorite Places to Vacation

Carnegie Rocks — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 07:07:11 +0000

I am on vacation in Key West. I was here last New Year’s week, too. I like it a lot even though it is very conservative … not! I stay at the Marquesa Hotel. It had the most beautiful plants!

Key West is my favorite winter getaway because it has really nice flags and blue skies.

I love the Marquesa Hotel. This is my room right by the pool. Of course I swim every day.

I earned a little extra money here by doing some modeling. I was the Item of the Week.

I have a lot of friends in Key West - This is my friend, Reggie.

: This is my friend, Captain Beatles, and this is the one and only real yellow submarine, too.

This is my friend Quack ... in spite of his name, he isn't really a duck, he's a white parrot.

This is my friend max; he lives at the Hemingway house even though he has no extra toes.

I heard this really great band GERD Rube, and guess what? I have GERD myself!

Believe it or not, you don't have to wear clothes in Key West ... I think.

Believe it or not, the Garden of Eden is in Key West!

I like window shopping in Key West; there are a lot of interesting stores.

Christmas in Key West

Dinner at Joël Robuchon at the Four Seasons Hotel in New York

Carnegie Rocks — Sat, 12 Dec 2009 18:38:00 +0000

Mom and I had dinner with our friends from Montreal, Joan and Luc, at the Four Seasons. I was happy because it was fun! No cat food here! There was foam in the fois gras (whatever that is), and the profiterole was yummy. The wait staff was really sweet; I wanted to eat them up.

This is me in Joël Robuchon's restaurant; it is very fancy.

Here's my friend Joan with Mom.

The Four Seasons Hotel is way cool because much of it looks sort of like an art gallery.

This is Luc. He is smiling, because today is Joan and Luc's 27th wedding anniversary.

I made some nice new friends in the hotel lobby.

When all is said and done, the Four Seasons Hotel is truly a place that a cat can get a head.

Thanksgiving at the South Carolina Beach (November 26, 2009)

Early Thanksgiving morning, I flew from New York to Greensboro North Carolina, then we drove to the South Carolina Beach. Our family rented a house for the holiday weekend. After shopping and cooking all day, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner. (Click on pictures to enlarge them.)

Provincetown (Cape Cod) Massachusetts August 22 – September 1, 2009

I went on vacation in August for in Provincetown for 16 days. My main activity was “The Tour de Clam.” Kitty, Mom and I ate clams every day. Barlow’s Clam shack on the Cape Cod Canal is my favorite for steamers and fried clams. (Actually, I never did see any turtles.)
