happy cinco de mayo

i am over at gracie's, celebrating!

PURRS FOR MOMO!

please send some healing purrs to our good friend momo!

five years ago...

...this was our first post.

how the maid managed to remember it AND allow us to post about it is beyond us....

and a party, like our first blogoversary party, is of course out of the question.

so we will celebrate quietly, dreaming about having another party some day in the future.

we aren't really blogging anymore at the moment but we think of all of you almost every day - thank you for five wonderful years!

bora bora day

as you might remember - or maybe not - ruis and i took a trip to bora bora for our first wedding anniversary!
we had a beautiful little hut by the water
and did a lot of water sports.
then we got a surprise visitor and sure enough
the next day we had many more!

now gracie has decided to go to bora bora to teach her human a lesson and invited us all to come along!

we decide to go by submarine, the way we had left last time and ruis and i are in the same little house we had the last time.

and of course we right away go to the beach again to frolic in the water!

then we decide to do something we hadn't done the last time: we visit a marae, a communal or sacred place which serves religious and social purposes. asta really liked that tiki, hahahahahahahaha!

and in the evenings we sit together and watch the beautiful sunsets and enjoy each others company! once again the gang (karl and ruis, momo, asta, opus and ollie and our new member gracie) is united! thank you, gracie.

come back here on august 4 to see!

the aftermath......

you might remember the cafe where the wedding party took place...

and would you believe it - when we finally decided it was time to go home - we couldn't find the way back to our vacation home anymore! gracie got really anxious - it was dark, we are in a foreign country - but we have NO idea WHERE... her driving might have gotten a bit erratically. and sure enough - the police stopped us and had gracie do a breathalyzer test....

but of course she didn't drink. and would never drive under the influence! but as we others had had quiet a lit of nip, nip champgne, nip martinis, nip-you-name-it the police arrested us nevertheless......

as it turned out they brought us to this old prison, which LOOKED like a prison, but is actually a hotel and ordered coffee for us and just gave us a warning and a map to our vacation house...

...where we finally got some sleep! or at least some of us.....

the wedding celebration

while the staff is having their legal ceremony and such we are preparing the cafe for the evening celebration. karl has watched his maid practice so here he is leading ruis in a close embrace tango, while momo and gracie are watching.

then opus takes ollie and they get carried away with a fiery paso doble!

and then, a little later, as usual, things get a wee bit more out of hand....


and yes - the story does not quiet end here either..... come back in a few days for the conclusion of this...
