Throwback to that time I was throwing up on my first sailing trip on the ocean in the #BVI last March. My son @brichieart and I have weak stomachs I guess. We were all of 5 minutes out and we were both heaving over the side of the boat. 😂 He keeps a journal and this was his version of it: “⠀
⠀
“But I did have I one of the most cathartic experiences of my life. Here I am in one is the most beautiful locations in my life, and I distinctly remember the clear turquoise water. I would throw up lightning yellow stomach bile, and as I did, these gorgeous tropical fish would all jump up in a flurry to eat my vomit. It was so pretty that I was excited to throw up because every time I did I got to see enough tropical fish to fill an aquarium, jump and swirl to eat whatever I was puking. I felt like a momma bird feeding her young. I don’t know if I’ve ever had such weird and conflicting feelings in my life.”⠀
⠀
This October we are going to brave it again sailing the US Virgin Islands. Wish us luck! I really do want to love sailing. .

#BridgeofSighs, #VeniceItaly. So my first and only gondola ride was with my son Ben. I really wanted a black, simple gondola because I wanted pretty, minimalist, pictures, so we went to this place that had them. We paid, and the gondolier told us he had a special upgrade for us. Of course, it was a bright, red lined, romantic, flowery, ornate gondola. I didn’t want to offend him cause I think it was his own so we just went with it. He proceeded to take us down the canal and I’m pretty sure we got the most aggressive and loud gondolier there ever was. He repeatedly yelled; “DISASTER!” And a lot of other passionate/angry Italian. Maybe even some Italian four letter words. I don’t know. Meanwhile, everyone else was enjoying their peaceful gondola rides. However, was still really cool and totally worth it. And I will absolutely not ever forget that ride. 😂

I just have to apologize for taking a long break from Instagram. Life has been good and I’ve been focusing on photography and family. But I just booked flights to #Paris, Rome, and the Amalfi coast the last 10 days of April! If anyone lives there and would like to meet up don’t be shy! Message me. .

My son @brichieart and I met an art student @taisske while visiting the Medici chapel in Florence. He was sketching a sculpture from the tomb of Lorenzo the Great by Michelangelo. His work was so beautiful and we had a great conversation! He sometimes does art on commission, so if you’ve always dreamed of owning an original classic piece of art, I’d contact him. .
