Reply from Guizzz to Hunter


Hey Dog!

How are you doing dude? Yes, long time no see.

You are most welcome at my house, as my hosts are away most of the time, it shouldn’t be a problem for us to plan and do the naughty things we do.

Don’t forget one thing though, the cat is in the house, he is still here with us, I didn’t manage to poison him or anything like that but he got really sick last month and I actually missed him while he was at the hospital, so take it easy on him, ok?

Hunter, the date and time are ok. While you are on the way, could you get me some of those chocolates that your King carefully supplied last January? It was great.

I have plenty of meat here as my host got a new barbecue, some guy gave it to him and he actually believes that it is his toy. What a jerk!!!

See you man, take care in the meantime and try not to jump from the bed too much.

Rgds,

Gizzzzz

Letter from Hunter to Guizzzz


Hi Guizmo

What s up man ? Long time no see... Well, I wonder if it would be ok with you if I spent a couple of weeks at your house. I promise I will help you to do very naughty things while our masters are not home hehehe

My King and Queen have to travel and I cannot go with them... tough luck of an old dog :(

If it is ok with you I will be there on 13th June at 8pm and will stay until 29th June morning.

Try to remember I like to take long naps during the day, so try to be quiet ok ?

I will bring my bed, my food and my toys, so you don t have to worry about me stealing your things.

Ah ! We have a blog now, you can take a look when you have time OK ? There is a nice picture of me right in the first page :)

Woof Woof

Mina A'Salam

Dinner... Flowers... So romantic hehe



Packing time !!!!!!!!

And packing time has arrived hehehe I just love it ! Shoes, winter clothes and books already done! Mr King has a very creative and special technique to pack, he gets the vacuum cleaner and sucks the air from the bags; which makes the volume less than 1/3 of its original size ! That's my King ! We have two more weeks to go before vacations arrive... uhhhhhhhhh Lots to look forward to !

Bye Bye Dubai - Farewell with Dear Friends




Hello everyone, I have a brief announcement to make.

Tonight Marc and I are here to say farewell to
Dubai
, and to celebrate with you, our friends. You all mean so much to us, and we both want to thank you for the times that we've shared together.

Moving to another country is a big step, but tonight we are celebrating another milestone as well. Over the past 29 years, Marc has taught almost 3000 students. Whether he was teaching chemistry, physics, biology, or sports, he has always received the highest compliments as a professional from his principals and administrators. More importantly, though, he has given his heart to making a real difference in the lives of his students. And they have cherished him for that commitment.

Now it is time to move on. But as he embarks upon another big step in life's journey, his dedication to helping people and changing lives is as strong as ever. I'm so proud of him, and happy to have him as my husband.

Trip to Paris


Always good to meet mom and dad ! They were so happy to meet my African cousins Gil & Victor. I was able to collect loads on info to my book which was one of my goals for this trip. I have also met Serginho and Steven, the boys I took care in the USA in 1993.
Pictures are fun ! Take a look:
