As much as I love and enjoy my watches, I hate when they tell me that time to end holidays and return home has arrived!

 Ok ... anyway I need to go back to work... bills have to be paid and also need the money to keep with the watch hobby!. 

And my beloved watches are waiting for me back home!!

Hope to return soon!!

Lot of pictures and memories are kept in my heart shared with my three watches worn during this trip!

Cheers! Abel

Miami is always special, but considering all the moments you lived and shared with us, I can assume this trip was something else! Here's hoping you will be back soon enough! Why not plan a GTG for next time? Un abrazo y buen viaje, Alejandro

... been a very special trip ss I came with my grand daughters and spent a few days cruising with the Disney ship. The trip had some adventurous moments: first with our plane forced to abort take off due to an engine failure while taxing then the cruise ship was deviated to Cozumel due to Matthew hurricane!! We had a great time anyway! Ok I hope everything will be ok with our trip back to home!! Great idea about a GTG!! Will keep in touch!! Thanks a lot for your good wishes! Cheers! Abel

My only boat is a canoe and sitting on that on top of the ice in Lapland does not offer a background which would impress anybody. Best, Kari
