Leaving Fort Lauderdale

A day in Fort Lauderdale

From cold old NYC to sunny FortLauderdale

It was Spring Break for some states and a nightmare for us in terms of loud students chatting into the night in adjoining rooms to ours.

Dogs and Cats

A walk in Morningside Park and the opportunity to enjoy Komondor dogs-The Komondor (in Hungarian, the plural form of komondor is komondorok[1]), also known as the Hungarian sheepdog, is a large, white-coloured Hungarian breed of livestock guardian dog with a long, corded coat.

Sometimes referred to as 'mop dogs', the Komondor is a long-established[2] powerful dog breed that has a natural guardian instinct to guard livestock and other property. The Komondor was brought to Europe by the Cumans[3] and the oldest known mention of it is in a Hungarian codex from 1544.[2] The Komondor breed has been declared one of Hungary’s national treasures, to be preserved and protected from modification.[4]-Source: Wikipedia

There are also Community Cats in the park

Classroom doors

 There is what I think is a bizarre process in schools where teachers are expected to decorate their classroom doors.  But doing a little research companies provide resources and ideas for decorating. I think perhaps many of our doors are sliding doors so one cannot easily decorate them without them being ripped the first time kids launch themselves into a room or they are open or they are outside doors and decorations wouldn't last.

So here are the February Black History Month  and the St Valentine's Day door and then the blend of Easter and St Patrick's Day.

The Beauty Parlor

A beauty salon or beauty parlor (beauty parlour), or sometimes beauty shop, is an establishment dealing with cosmetic treatments for men and women.[1] Other variations of this type of business include hair salons and spas.


There is a distinction between a beauty salon and a hair salon and although many small businesses do offer both sets of treatments; beauty salons provide extended services related to skin health, facial aesthetic, foot care, nail manicures, aromatherapy, — even meditation, oxygen therapy, mud baths, and many other services....so there you go!
