Notes from Equatorial Guinea
I was s
o excited for my second trip to Africa - being able to return after my amazing last visit. I was wondering how this would be
different, what I would see. When we arrived, I immediately noticed the
construction -- it seemed like a whole new city was being built,
including my hotel. And it was lovely, with a view overlooking the
pool and lots of greenery. So peaceful.
There were dinners
and conferences, speeches introducing us to the history of this former
Spanish colony. I saw a lot of pride and an interesting custom: no
dessert, but instead platters of fruit served after every meal. I was
grateful not to have the temptation of sugary sweets and thus less
pounds to keep off.
Africa has its share of talented
designers - what would a vacation for Marlo be without fashion? La Vie
Couture put on a show of gorgeous dresses and of course I put on my own
show, featuring Lous Vuitton.
Africa is an amazing place. I visted Ghana a few years back and vowed to return again and SOON!!!
Cant wait for the follow-up post!
Love that dress on you!!!!!!
