Holiday Thoughts

I have never considered bocas del toro as a holiday destination before, probably because I did not know much about it. However, a family member has just come back from there and showed me their photographs and it looks fantastic. They had a really pretty bocas del toro property which they rented for two weeks. They spent their time sight-seeing, relaxing, reading, enjoying the views and basically having some fun family time together. It sounded like they had a really great time and I would love to take my family there as well. We do not holiday every year and so when we do go, we really make the most of it. We also have enjoyable and memorable holidays, mainly because we actually get to spend time together as a family, which is not something that we do much of the time as we are all too busy. In a way, the local is not massively important, it is the fact that we are away from home and being together. However, we do tend to find that it is more enjoyable if the location is pretty, the property is comfortable and the weather is good. This is a reason for looking at the bocas del toro resort as it looked very comfortable with great facilities and the weather looked ideal for us. I will just have to see whether the rest of the family are as keen as me in spending time there

Bridesmaid dress Dilemma

Filed Under (Wedding kiss, wedding dress, wedding gift, wedding idea) by Deepak Shrivastava on 23-01-2010

I have been asked to be a bridesmaid by a friend of mine and I am looking forward to it, apart from one thing. She has chosen the most horrible dresses for the bridesmaids. I know that the wedding dresses need to be the main focus and the bridesmaids should not take any focus from the bride but I do not like it when the dresses are nasty to make the bride look better. Perhaps it isn’t intentional but I feel really horrid in the dress that I am wearing and I just wish that it was slightly more flattering. The colour doesn’t suit me either but I guess that it matches the flowers and the wedding reception decorations so I cannot complain about that. I am sure it will be okay, but I normally like to go to a wedding feeling like I look good, although I would never dream of trying to upstage the bride. I think that because the wedding venue is a hotel, that I will book a room in and then change for the evening reception so I feel better. I have a nice dress that I will feel comfortable in, that is right for the occasion and is a flattering style so I will have that with me.
