Pimp your suitcase

Do you also find it very difficult to pick your bag among all the other blue, black ones in the luggage claim? Then make your bag easier to identify.

This is how I do it, with stickers, this time as butterflies. Cheap and it make it all so much more easy at the luggage claim.

And after, it look like this! Think I will find it right away now!

More from Spain and a hip hotel in Meloneras

Here is som more photos from the elegant hotel Lopesan Baobab resort and spa in Meloneras in Gran Canaria in Spain.

This is one of the elegant and hip, designed chairs that you could find in the hotel.

And as I wrote about last time the hotel have an african theme, this is one of the bars.

It is also a lot of green plants and lush gardens everywhere.

At Lopesan Baobab

If you want to stay in a hotel that reminds you of Africa without leaving Europe, this is the answer: Hotel and resort Lopesan Baobab in Gran Canaria.

It is an amazing place, really well done and beautiful, day and night.

This is a big, big resort in the upmarket "town" of Meloneras, just outside Malspalomas.

And here you can choose from a lot of big pools, not that I used them thou. I am just to cold to swim in 22 degrees, when it is a freezing wind, sorry!

But there is water all over the place, both ponds and pools so I did enyoy them!

And one thing I really loved about this place was the morning yoga at one of the pools.

I just can't help myself...

I know, the spring is here. So I should be happy that is getting warmer, but I still miss my beautiful Thailand!

So here are some reminders from my last trip there, this time we flew to Krabi and Ao Nang and Klong Muang beach.

A pic from the amazing pool at our hotel Sofitel Krabi.

The boats like this you can see every where. Ready to sail out in the clear warm blue sea.

The beach just outside the hotel Sofitel Phokeethra. Amazing clear water.

And this in one early morning in Klong Muang. Read more about my story here:

Training again, this time in Spain

Just came back from a week in Lanzarote in Spain, at the Canary islands. Stayed at the HD beach resort in Costa Teguise.

It was a training week, filled with exercise in various forms, like Yoga, Tai Chi and at the gym. Combined with a lot of walks.

This is just outside the hotel, filled with a lot of flowers in the black lava sand.

I had a really relaxing week, exactly was I needed as I am not feeling well.

The hotel was close to the sea, so you could take a walk at the seaside. Sunny but also very windy when I was there.

The sand and at the beach just outside the hotel.

Relax in Klong Muang

Just arrived home from a vacay in Thailand again, this time in the Krabi area, in Klong Muang just outside Ao Nang.

I just Love Thailand! Always good restaurants where ever you go. Here one just at the beach in Klong Muang.

Beeing there for a holiday with a friend made me relax completely, after two week I feel like a new person, swimming, eating good food and just taking in the sun and the warm weather.

The sunsets are amazing too, this one is from the hotel Sofitel Krabi.

Here is a view of the very grand and big hotel, in colonial style.

An example of what you can eat in a resturant close to the hotel, called the Beach Hose Restaurant.

And the beaches in the area was not really crowded, hardly anyone was there.

Hot in Turkey

It has been a year filled with a lot of travel for me. Just came back from Turkey, have been in Avsallar in Turkey, at Sunprime Numa Beach Hotel.

And it was really hot! About 38 degrees (C) or more every day, in the shadow.

The sea was lovely, the hotel had a small beach where you could stay.

The hotel also had a big pool and it was close to the sea.

I have had a long summer. Just spent a week in Turkey. Here a pic from inside the hotel.

I also had a nice buffet at breakfast every day, with fresh fruits like these.

And here you can se the chef that prepared the breakfast, eggs and omelettes and a lot of other good stuff.

Summer in Uppsala

Even if this summer have been really rainy it is now sunny and varm outside. This particular day I was visiting nearby Uppsala.

It was not the best weather but Fyrisån is always beautiful. Even if it was raining.

The magnificent dome, Domkyrkan in Uppsala.

And the last photo is showing a bit of romance by the water.

African shopping in Sal

Every morning the fishermen came back from their trips and you could buy fresh fish at the pier of Santa Maria.

And here is what you could find in the restaurants later in the afternoon, looks really good!

It was not really a lot that you could buy there in Sal, one of the Africans islands in the country of Cape Verde.

And the things you found in the shops was a little odd, and big!

Another street in Santa Maria and another shop with turisty things.

Bracelets and stuff like that where very popular, and could easy be find on most of the streets.

Sal, an African island in the sun

Just came home from a vacation from Sal in Cape Verde just outside the west coast of Africa.

Sal is one of the many island of Cape Verde, with a lot of sun and a lot of strong winds. But also besutiful beaches.

I stayed at the Salinas Sea Hotel outside the small town of Santa Maria. A modern hotel just a few years old.

Here is the lobby, of the hotel. Always full of turists, coming or going.

And one pic of the pool with a swim up bar. We where also very close to the sea.

As you can see here, the hotel bar and resturant in front of the sea.

One more pic of that bar, taken from the sea side. A really nice place to relax at, with samba music and a drink.

Here is the hotel beach, with the blue sea. A little too cold for me thu.

You could also sleep and relax in these, or just read a book.

I used these every morning, just outside the hotel, it is really good to stay in shape in the vacation too.

Then you have to eat, I had an all inclusive package on my trip. Here are the desserts one day.
