Destination: Rio

Sean and Tony departed to Rio de Janeiro to unwind and relax after the holiday. The botanical gardens were first on the list of sites with Christ the Redeemer in the background of the first photo is breathtaking. The statue is surrounded by mist after a heavy rain.

When it’s time for a café break Tony enjoys treats from Confeitaria Colombo on Rua Gonçalves Dias, 32, this establishment is 120 years old and the food is absolutely amazing when dining in an antiquated establishment.Copacabana is one of the most famous beaches in the world, and is absolutely beautiful after a storm. You can almost hear the sounds of bossa nova from Antônio Carlos Jobim.

Travel stylishly,

Six Years

November is the anniversary month of my blog and somehow time always has way of creeping up on me. I remember drafting the first segments of Stylish Heath a year before actually posting the site. I was in the kitchen planning the Thanksgiving menu with mom so, the upcoming gathering would be enjoyable by everyone, including us……as the primary chefs. I remember jotting items into an online notebook so, we would remember recipes, and the time-frame for prepping and cooking. In this book I sketched and scanned images, while taking photographs of all that was going on around Heath…. hence the preliminary versions of the blog.

There is something nostalgic about perusing through those first post, and seeing how we have grown. Please enjoy a few photos from our travels, flowers from the garden and art from museums. I cannot believe six years has gone by so quickly.

Thank you for your support, and for sharing your wonderfully creative ideas, I absolutely love blogging and this has been a remarkable journey!!!
